We Lost Yet another Great Man on Saturday

Scott R Chilcutt, San Antonio, TX (July 13, 2019)  The Golf Channel AM Tour, Texas Tours, lost another great man on Saturday.  Melvin Hill of Boerne, TX, passed away from injuries after his cart flipped into a ravine while playing in the first round of the Hill Country Classic - Major Championship @ LaCantera on Saturday.

Melvin, and twin brother Marvin, of San Angelo, TX, started competing as a team, in the special Duel in the Desert in Las Vegas in 2010 and since then competed in almost a decade of those events, with various friends and family. 

After getting the itch for competitive golf and travels, he would go on to play in over 75 Golf AM Tour events, from Hawaii to Texas.  

Melvin was always gracious and caring and will be missed by all his AM Tour friends and acquaintances.

The World Lost a Great Man

The World Lost a Great Man on Monday!


Scott Chilcutt, McKinney, TX (July 8th, 2019)  John Cox of Mansfield, TX, a member of the Golf Channel AM Tour, since January of 2008, finished his 135th round on tour on Monday at the Championship @ TPC Craig Ranch.

In typical fashion, John turned in his scorecard, shook our hands, and thanked the Tournament Staff, for all they did, like he did every one of those 134 previous tournaments. Within a short time later, he was taken from us.

A consummate gentleman, and truly nice guy, John will never be forgotten, as we will feel his presence looking over us at events to come.
