Growing Golf Stars

Houston Chronicle: Houston area becoming a hotbed for young golf talent, 2008-Jul-5, by Jenny Dial: "I think there are a lot of really great players from my age group that came out of Houston," Fish said. "I think a lot of us are going to be able to do big things in the upcoming years." Lopez thinks this generation of golfers has helped set the tone for the area's future in the sport. "I think we set the bar pretty high, and I hope that a lot more of the best players around are coming from the Houston area," he said. "There are a lot of great courses, great coaches and good talent there. Maybe soon, Houston will be one of the best golfing cities."
