Lee-Anne Gilchrist, CEO of the Golf Performance Academy and the USA Junior Golf Federation, joins us live from the Travelers Championship. Both organizations are dedicated to junior golf development, helping young athletes from around the world pursue their dreams on and off the course. The Golf Performance Academy focuses on player growth, training, and academics, while the USA Junior Golf Federation supports talented athletes who lack financial access, covering expenses like tuition and tournament costs. Their programs emphasize not just golf, but leadership, character, and education.
Lee-Anne shared incredible success stories, including students playing in national teams, U.S. Junior events, and even LPGA tournaments. With a new campus opening soon in Port St. Lucie, Florida, the program is expanding its impact beyond Connecticut. Through Birdies for Charity, every dollar raised earns an additional 15 cents from Webster Bank.
