(DALLAS, TX) – Legendary golfer Billy Casper will entertain golfers at Bear Creek Golf Club on Thursday, July 7 from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Casper will provide swing tips, sign autographs and take photos in addition to leading a Q&A session with the Bear Creek Senior Golfers group. The club will also conduct a demo day on the driving range with Callaway, Titleist and Nike showcasing the latest in golf equipment and apparel.
The day’s activities with Casper are free and open to the public.
“I always enjoyed the TOUR stop in the Dallas area during my playing days,” says Casper, 80, a member of the PGA and World Golf Hall of Fame. “At Bear Creek, I look forward to making new friends and sharing tales and tips with golfers who love this great game.”
A Masters and two-time U.S. Open champion with 51 PGA TOUR victories, Casper won the 1968 Colonial National Invitational at Colonial Country Club in Fort Worth.
“We are excited Billy Casper will entertain golfers at Bear Creek,” says Scott Davey, General Manager of Bear Creek. “His infectious personality and undying affection for ‘all things golf’ will make for an unforgettable experience.”
