Travelling Lad Attracting Media Attention

Holly Sonders of KATV Channel 7 interviews Dylan Dethier about his journey to play at least one course in the 48 continental states today at Rebsamen Golf Course in Little Rock. Following the interview, Sonders, a 2-handicapper and former collegiate player at Michigan State & Dethier (pronounced Da Chair), an 18-year-old with a 4-handicap, had a brief challenge on the driving range. The interview is scheduled to air tomorrow (Thursday) on KATV and will be linked to this blog as soon as it is available. Special thanks to George Earls, facility supervisor at Rebsamen, for not only allowing the interview and challenge match to take place on the driving range, but allowing Dylan to see experience the challenging Rebsamen layout along the banks of the Arkansas River and the new Champion Bermuda greens. I imagine if you check out Dylan's blog at www.eighteeninamerica.blogspot.com, in the near future you might see a photo of the signature 13th hole at Rebsamen - with the city skyline in the background. Earlier today, Bob Steel interviewed Dylan on KARN and he has also been featured in USA Today and on a Jacksonville, FL television station - all linked to his blog. Thursday the journey continues into Oklahoma!
