“I’m surprised by this honor of being recognized by Global Golf Post,” said Mickelson. “Mistwood is a special place. I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunity in representing our golf culture on a daily basis.”

JOHN PLATT is a four-time winner of the Golf Range Association of America Top 100 Growth of the Game Teaching Professionals.

“It’s an honor to receive this award four years in a row. It’s rewarding knowing that’s it’s based on merit,” said Platt. “I appreciate all the students, both juniors and adults, for trusting me to improve their games.”

Platt has had 175 junior golf students go on to play in the Illinois High School Association state finals. More than 150 of his students have moved on to play college golf.
