Andrew Dobreff was the Honorary Guest at Prairie Isle GC for the last regular season tournament on the Chicago North Tour schedule.  Andrew aspired to being a Pro one day but an auto accident shattered his dreams as it had his left arm.  A surgically constructed titanium elbow allowed Andrew to keep his left arm but render it useless for almost any activity, especially golf. 

Under the guidance of a teaching pro who understood Alexander's challenges, has managed to get Alexander back on the course hitting the ball straight and with some distance.  Alexander wanted to showcase his talents and be an inspiration to all golfers who have physical issues that make playing the game of golf a challenge.  His ultimate goal is to spark enough interest to develop a tour for the handicap golfer.

Thank you to John Babcock PGA Teaching Pro and Director of Golf at Prairie Isle for the special exemption waiving the greens fees.  In addition, all fees were waived which allowed Alexander to participate as a guest.  On behalf of myself and the Golf Channel AM Tour, we wish Alexander great success fulfilling his dream.
