LEVY: GET INSIDE ROPES
TO GRASP TOUR LIFESTYLE

You watch them on TV: Tiger, Phil, Vijay. They do amazing things with the golf ball and consistently play at such a high level, it's no wonder we immortalize them. PGA Tour players: These guys are good.
My Scottsdale Community College team recently had the opportunity to volunteer for the FBR Open maintaining the practice facility throughout the week. It was an amazing week, yes, but to leave the experience at that wouldn't come close to giving it justice.

NEWS AND NOTES

* Boone Valley Golf Club in Augusta, Mo., will host the 2007 U.S. Junior Amateur, the U.S. Golf Association announced.
The Junior will be the first USGA championship played at the P.B. Dye-designed course which opened in 1992 and was later revised by Hale Irwin. The course has hosted two Champions Tour events, the Boone Valley Classic from 1996 to 2000 and the Enterprise Rent-A-Car Match Play in 2001.
The 2007 championship, the first Junior Amateur to be held in Missouri, will be played July 23-28.
This year's Junior Amateur will be played at Longmeadow (Mass.) Country Club July 18-23 and the 2006 site has not been announced.

* The third PING Junior Solheim Cup will be played Sept. 7-8 at The Bridgewater Club in Carmel, Ind. The Solheim Cup starts a day later at Crooked Stick GC.
The Junior Solheim Cup features teams of 12 players from the United States and Europe playing a Ryder Cup-style format of six four-ball, six foursome and 12 singles matches.
The United States won the inaugural event in 2002 in Minnesota, while the European side evened the series in Sweden in 2003.

* Fred Tattersall, founder and president of The First Tee of Richmond, donated a $100,000 scholarship to the AJGA. The donation is earmarked for the AJGA's Achieving Competitive Excellence Grant, which provides competitive golf opportunities for young golfers regardless of financial resources.
The AJGA developed the ACE Grant to offset the costs of playing a national junior golf schedule for players without financial backing. Since 2003, ACE Grants have helped 63 juniors play in AJGA events they otherwise might not have attended.
For more information, contact Mandy Riceman with The First Tee at 904-940-4324.

* The Stephen Ames Cup, an international event for juniors ages 11-19, will be played July 28-30 in Toronto, Ontario. The three-day event, hosted by PGA Tour player Stephen Ames, will feature eight Canadian juniors against a team from Trinidad & Tobago in a Ryder Cup-style competition.

PLAYER TO WATCH
Name: Jon Curran
Age: 17
Golfweek/Titleist Ranking: 3^rd
Residence: Hopkinton, Mass.
The Skinny: It's March, and if Jon Curran walked out of his house today in Hopkinton, Mass., he could still build a snowman.
Fortunately for Curran, the third-ranked junior in the Golfweek/Titleist rankings, he's one of the few lucky New Englanders who gets to spend most of the winter in the sun, and on a golf course. Which, of course, doesn't give him much time to build snowmen.
The lesson goes, then, that the less snowmen you make on the golf course, the less snowmen you'll make off of it.
Curran's latest escape was Feb. 18-20 to Ocean Forest GC on Sea Island, Ga., for the third biennial Jones Cup Invitational.
Curran, a 12th-grader headed to Vanderbilt next year, shot 79-80-77--236 to tie for 64th among one of the best fields in amateur golf.
''I wish I played better,'' said Curran, who won the Massachusetts high school individual state title last fall and also led Hopkinton High to the state championship. ''But it was a great week. They just treat us so well here.''
Among the perks was a chance for Curran to play his first round with future teammate Luke List, a sophomore at Vanderbilt, No. 15 in the Golfweek/Titleist Men's Amateur Rankings.
''He's great to play with,'' Curran said. ''I'm really looking forward to next year. I've made a few visits (to Vanderbilt) and they're all great guys.''
Curran's remaining junior schedule is thin, but includes the Scott Robertson Memorial and ''probably'' the AJGA's Thunderbird International Junior.
After that, the focus shifts to all the big amateur events. ''The Azalea, Northeast Am, all that good stuff,'' said Curran, smiling.
Apparently, it's not such a bad thing to be Jon Curran right now.
Walking away from the scoring table after the final round of the Jones Cup, someone asked Curran is he was heading back home to the cold.
''No,'' he said, ''I'm actually heading to Florida now.''
Rough winter.

POLL QUESTION
At Doral, Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson spoke out for fewer events per year. Should the PGA Tour schedule be shortened?
