We don’t know what school will look like in fall, but we are  not yet comfortable with traditional TGA after-school classes in an indoor gym. We do know there is a hunger for after-school activities, and we’re working with our partner schools and golf courses to find some safe options for fall. Here’s the situation: […]

TGA coaches and former students turned in some amazing performances in major July events: Ariel Chang (top left) won the Michigan Girls State Junior, shooting an astounding 9-under-par 62 in the second round of stroke play to win medalist honors, then prevailing in four rounds of match play to win the title. Ariel also advanced […]

Lorenzo Pinili is 15 years old and an elite competitive player. In June he advanced to the Sweet 16 of the Michigan Men’s Amateur. In July he tied for fourth with rounds of 70-72-68 in a prestigious AJGA event in Illinois. But he always stays humble and always gives back. On July 10, Lorenzo returned […]

Then Lincoln Hessler followed on June 22 on the 94-yard third hole at Somerset Park. Then, while relaying this story to our coaches at Hilltop a few […]

The Lee family earned two gold medals on Sunday, June 28, in TGA’s first individual tournament of the summer at Somerset Park in Troy.

One of our greatest sources of TGA pride is the fact that so many former students have become TGA assistant coaches or lead instructors. I still remember the spring of 2010, when Immanuel Lutheran kindergartener Adam Mohr was named golfer of the month. He and his sister Madison were both taking their first TGA after-school […]

The top three golfers in each division will earn a […]

As restrictions ease a bit and the weather turns warmer, here is the latest on TGA programs: All spring enrichment programs are officially canceled. Of course after-school programs can’t happen because schools are not in session, but we also have canceled the programs scheduled for community centers and other sites.
