1 min read | december 09, 2022
The same skills that golfers use to elevate their game can also put kids on a course to success in the classroom and in life. As local students across Houston learned at Chevron’s Whole in One golf clinic, the art of driving, chipping and putting takes practice—and a bit of science, too.
on the right course
Close to 200 students from two local schools teed up at Memorial Park Golf Course in Houston. Along the way, PGA Tour® pros Cole Hammer and Kyle Westmoreland introduced the kids to the fundamentals of the game and presented STEM subjects—like aerodynamics, geometry and physics.
