TED BITS, Ted McIntyre - Sierra Duplantis Tourney Remembers Her Father

The stories keep coming in about Steve Duplantis, the PGA Tour caddie and former Ontario Golf columnist who passed away last month. So do the tributes.
The latest will honour Steve while raising funds for his daughter, Sierra. The first of two memorial events will run March 10 at Walden Lake G&CC in Plant City, Florida, a short drive from both Orlando and Tampa.
The second event will be staged the Monday of Canadian Open week–July 21–at North Halton G&CC in Georgetown.
The Florida tournament will give the people Steve met during his 14 years on the PGA Tour a chance to join in on the celebration, while the Canadian Open tribute will accommodate family and a long list of friends and others who would like to donate to the cause in this neck of the woods. Word is, however, that the odd PGA Tour player may also make an appearance at the North Halton event, which has received the endorsement of the PGA Tour and the RCGA.
Those interested in teeing it up at Walden Lake should contact Brennan Webb at (813) 758-4100 or email bkwtour@aol.com. Entry fee for the four-person scramble is $100 apiece, which includes lunch and prizes, with an auction afterward.
One hundred percent of the proceeds will be donated to the Sierra Duplantis Trust Fund that has been established by the PGA Tour.
I’ll keep you posted as details become available for the July 21 event in Georgetown.
