BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (WBRC) - There’s good and bad news when it comes to the golf story of 14-year-old Jackson Skinner of Birmingham, AL. The good news is he qualified to play at Augusta National Golf Club in the national finals of the Drive, Chip & Putt Event. The bad news is that he would have to wait for more than a year to finally get his shot.
“I was so excited and my family was pumped,” said Skinner, who was 12 at the time. “But less than a month before the finals the Coronavirus pandemic shut everything down and postponed the event. Then it was re-scheduled for November, but it was delayed again. However in 2021 it is on and I am ready for my shot.”
