Calgary’s Kiefer Jones and Medicine Hat’s Jesse Florkowski will compete in the inaugural U.S. Adaptive Open
Jones is a past winner of the World Blind Golf Championship, while Florkowski has basically become the permanent owner of the trophy at the North America One-Armed Golfer Association Championship.
The U.S. Adaptive Open is a three-round showdown that runs Monday to Wednesday. There will be highlight packages and other coverage on Golf Channel. Florkowski and Jones certainly have the talent to contend for that prize, although this field is as deep as it is diverse. Born without his right arm, Florkowski was swinging a golf club by the age of two. He competed collegiately for the Medicine Hat Rattlers and is now teaching lessons as an assistant pro at Connaught. Last month, the 32-year-old collected his sixth title — in seven appearances — at the North America One-Armed Golfer Association Championship in Seattle.
