(LUKE LUDWIG)
The summer before your senior year is memorable for most high school students.
Luke Ludwig had a special summer, for sure.
The St. Anthony High School student competed this summer in the US Junior Amateur Golf Championship. The event was held this year at famed Baltusrol Golf Club in Springfield, New Jersey.
The appearance came after Ludwig, the son of Jeff and Jami Ludwig of Effingham, was one of two golfers who qualified for the national event at St. Clair Country Club in Belleville, shooting a career-low 68.
Things didn't go quite as well during the national competition, with Ludwig finishing +13 and not making the cut. However, he did register a hole-in-one on the 176-yard par 3 15th hole, just the 15th hole-in-one in USJA history.
Greg Sapp sat down with Luke to discuss his experience at Nationals...
