Charlotte, N.C. - North Carolina head football coach Butch Davis played golf Wednesday in the Quail Hollow Championship Pro-Am. Davis and William Duvall were paired with PGA professional Dustin Johnson. Johnson is one of the longest hitters on PGA Tour, ranking third at a average distance over 300.5 yards. He has won three PGA Tour events.
The Quail Hollow Championship, which features most of the top golfers in the world, including Tiger Woods and Masters champion Phil Mickelson, begins Thursday. It is one of the largest, most prestigious sporting events in the Charlotte region. Champions for Education, a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization, operates and manages the tournament and has donated over $11 million to local and regional charities since 2003. Now leading up to its eighth edition, the tournament is intended as an annual tradition that will bring players and patrons back each year for an unforgettable golf experience. In 2009, the tournament earned "Best In Class" as the top event on the PGA TOUR schedule.
