Michael will take part in the Humana Challenge Pro-Am Golf Competition, in partnership with the Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton Foundation, to be held at La Quinta Country Club, CA starting with the 1st round on Thursday, 16th January.   For the first time this year Low-Gross Awards will be given and the opportunity, for six amateurs to make the cut for Sunday, is being introduced.

Last year Michael, who played in the Ernie Dunlevie Field, won the Ernie Dunlevie Trophy, coming in 3rd in the overall competition;  sadly, have to report that, Ernie Dunlevie passed away last October, at the age of 96.  He was a co-founder of the tournament now known as Humana Challenge and was a member of the Desert Classic Charities' Board of Directors and he passed away following complications from cancer.

Believe can say we all wish Michael a successful tournament and hope another trophy is added to his collection at end of the Competition:  also too we wish him wonderful rounds of golf and hope he has a super, FUN, time !!!

Sylvia.  Your wee Scottish friend

Wonderful picture Michael has tweeted of himself, Bill Clinton and Dr. Handa accompanied by the following tweet.......

"Inspiring as ever tonight! My dear friend & our new friend Dr Handa. "

Michael has also posted the picture onto FB and with it on there he has put the following caption......

"Inspiring as ever tonight! My dear friend Bill! With our new sacred friend Dr Handa. Clinton Foundation year 3 with Humana."

 Petra saw this on Twitter and has put on Miscellany thread but, as obviously to do with Humana Challenge Tournament, have brought to this thread.

Hi Sylvia, I don't know if you need to log in, but I'm not getting anything on that page. It simply sounds like the main page to me. Thanks anyway, take care. Hugs, sincerely, Sylvie QC Canada

It takes a few seconds for it to come up but when it does it doesn't play automatically Sylvie and even when it does you only hear voices way off in distance and sound of Michael whacking the ball......it is only seconds long the video but it is so clear of him and it is shot from behind so it is side view of him taking the shot that you see and then once he has taken shot it is his back you see for he is looking to see where ball has gone and then he leans forward to draw another ball onto the spot to practice again and all the time his great big burly caddy is standing to the right in shot.....it is a good little video and always nice to see Michael and especially, for me, seeing him actually hitting a golf ball.

Hopefully might get something else for yesterday I picked up on Twitter and tweet where someone was saying they were watching Michael getting interviewed at that moment but, so far, haven't been able to find........I will keep looking and I believe you all know that fact without my having to promise !!!!! LOL.

Sylvia.  Your wee Scottish friend.
