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 to his roots to caddy for his 6-year-old cousin Landon in TGA’s 9-hole tournament at Rammler. Lorenzo started with TGA at an after-school program at Montessori Children’s Academy, then dominated the 8-under division of our tournament series. The Pinili family got another gold on July 10 as Landon tied for first in the 8-under division.
