World-AM Tournament has just registered two more golfers! The Traveling Golfer and Myrtle Beach Golf Holiday would like to congratulate Keith Gardner (pictured above), of Richmond Hill, Ontario. Keith is the winner of the World AM contest recently held on The Traveling Golfer. From August 25th-29th 2008, Keith and a friend will be participating in the world's largest golf tournament held annually in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.

Keith, a golfer for the past 25 years, enjoys playing a variety of courses from Niagara Falls to Belleville to Huntsville. Although he is not a member at any particular golf club, Keith (with a fluctuating handicap of 11 to13) has recently joined the 2008 Toronto Highland Golf Tour.

"I am totally thrilled about winning the trip to participate in the PGA Superstore World AM Handicap Championship. It finally paid off filling in all those entry forms." he said. "I will be forever thankful to The Traveling Golfer for this wonderful opportunity."

Keith first heard about the Traveling Golfer while attending the Toronto Golf & Travel Show earlier this year, and he went on to say that he is very proud to say that he has played a total of 161 Ontario Golf Courses, 87 outside of Ontario, and 44 in the Myrtle Beach area. He is a true "traveling golfer"!

This is what Keith has won:
· Entry for himself (and a friend) to the tournament – 72 holes of tournament golf hosted on four different Myrtle Beach area golf courses
· 5 nights accommodations at the Sheraton Myrtle Beach Convention Center Hotel
· 4 nights of free food, open bar and entertainment at the World's Largest 19th Hole
· A goodie bag valued at over $100
· The opportunity to win both the contest and random drawing prizes
· The opportunity to compete in the Flight Winner's Playoff, held at the well-known Dunes Golf & Beach Club

Congratulations, once again, Keith! Enjoy your time at the World AM.

Keith is just one of our Traveling Golfer subscribers who have won a fabulous golf vacation of a life time. The Turgeon Family of Mt Bridges, ON recently returned from their weeks stay at the luxurious Spinnaker Resort in Hilton Head SC and claimed their "overall rating of the entire trip is a 10+ by far a golfer's paradise".

Here is what they had to say:
"Though Jenna & Marc did most of the golfing, Justin & Mom had an opportunity to explore the gorgeous surroundings and beautiful 12 miles of beaches on bicycles. Our accommodations at Waterside were superb - extremely clean and comfortable - "5 star" all the way. Both Port Royal and Shipyard golf courses were a sight to see, let alone play. Shipyard's courses in particular were in spectacular condition and very close to our Villa. The abundance of alligators on the courses was a rather unique "hazard" we hadn't yet experienced!! Their presence was a good motivator to keep the ball 'on course!' We took fewer photos than we normally would on vacation - it took some time to recover from the unexpected travel changes, and of course we were very preoccupied with the "surreal" environment in which we had the pleasure of vacationing as a family. The beautiful weather, stellar service and friendly attitudes of staff and visitors alike contributed to making this a trip one that we'd definitely like to repeat. We can't thank Golf South enough for this wonderful opportunity - we are very grateful for the win, and the introduction to such an amazing vacation paradise.

Sincerely,
The Turgeon Family

Alida and Rennie Vankeroerle of Mt Bridges, ON Canada were our winners to Santee, South Carolina and they wrote to tell us:

"My husband and I arrived in Santee on Saturday, the 8th of Dec., instead of Sunday, the 9th as was booked for us. It presented no problem for the Howard Johnson. The staff there were very friendly and helpful. Kimberley, at the desk, called to rearrange our golf. We were able to play our Saturday, the 15th booking at Santee Cooper, on Sunday the 9th instead. No problem. All the rest remained the same for the most wonderful week. Our temperatures were in the high 70's to low 80's every day. The golf was tremendous, as were all the golf staff. Each course we played had the fairways and greens in great shape. Each course had its own uniqueness and we really can't say that one was better than the other. Crowfield was the most challenging of the courses, where Lake Marion and Santee Cooper have interesting layouts. Wyboo and Santee National were pristine and had more forgiving fairways. We tried different restaurants in the area and enjoyed them all. Coaster's was our first stop and it offered sports bar televisions, great food and a colorful decor. Sanchez was a wonderful Mexican restaurant that we thoroughly enjoyed. Our all out treat was at Captains Quarters where we enjoyed the very best prime rib and seafood!! Yum! LT's was good eats in a more casual setting and was very reasonably priced. We missed going to Clark's Inn for their Sunday buffet brunch, which is apparently very good, but, enjoyed Cracker Barrel, Maurices's BBQ, and Shoney's for the occasional breakfast or lunch. With a microwave and refrigerator in our room, we were able to snack on foods we bought at the local Piggly Wiggly grocery store. Yep! Had us a great time and cannot thank Golf South enough for arranging this contest win. We are very appreciative and hope others have as much fun with a contest win as we did.

Thank you so much,
Alida and Rennie Vankerkoerle
