Coach Todd and The First Tee in Forbes Magazine
This story is from the Nov. 21, 2011 issue of Forbes magazine.
The 510-yard par 5 third hole at Fenway Golf Club in Scarsdale, N.Y. is a challenging one on the 1924, A.W. Tillinghast-designed course, and Jessica Sawyer is not happy with her third shot. From 180 yards out she had launched a hybrid 5-iron approach directly at the pin. It fell short, leaving her ball deeply embedded in a steep bank protecting the elevated green.
“Do you know how to do this shot?” asks her coach, Todd Bordonaro, who works with the First Tee, a youth golf program supported by a host of professional organizations, including the PGA Tour and a Who’s Who of The Forbes 400, on its board of trustees.
