Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the potential strength of fraternal bonds within the golf industry, detailing the author's experience at the 2010 Wee One tournament held to honor and benefit Tom Fuller in his battle with esophageal cancer. States that "'nobody in the support group activities I [Tom Fuller] attend has received such an outpouring of support from their industry peers.'" Suggests that those working in the turf industry may possess exceptional compassion, pondering "is it because we can comprehend the challenges beyond our control and appreciate that some problems we can deal with alone and other require a request for help? Is it because we understand the frailty of life?" Mentions that the money raised during the event "helped to relieve the stress of making payments during the six months he was absent from the work force." |
