June 9-16, 2014, Kasey attended The Player Advanced Academy, along with 23 other junior golfers, at the WakeForest College Academy in North Carolina. This 8-day academy experience is intended for advanced players and to provides an experience that will improve the chances to compete at a higher level. Kasey adds that it also taught her the mental aspects of the game, and how she enjoyed the opportunity of staying on the college campus for eight 8 days.
Kasey Torres concluded our talk by sharing with me that “Golf is my life”, and that naturally she wants to be a pro golfer, however she is realistic. She feels, first and far most, she needs to focus on her education. History is her favorite subject, and believe it or not she does have time for hobbies; such as reading, drawing, and wouldn’t you know, also art.
I can truly say that I am a supporter and an advocate of students that are studying the arts, and I assist in providing awards to those students who have clearly, more than once, demonstrated excellence in their creative fields.
Full of excitement from beginning to end, the ladies were greeted with a bag drop at the entrance; there was a formal welcome and demo by Ira McGraw Jr., General Manager of Cedar Crest Golf Course and Maulana Dotch, Director of Instruction at Cedar Crest Golf Course on the driving range.

It was a wonderful sight to see all of the lady professional golfers, participants and sponsors. All were joined in one room for the awards and luncheon where they were welcomed by the Emcee, Donna Richardson Joyner.
brought women together from all over the country to encourage and empower the game of golf. Golf professionals Oneda Castille and Avis Brown Riley traveled to Texas to support this historic event.
Johnson’s eldest son, Van said, “The life of our father has impacted us as men in many different ways. Growing up we were fortunate enough to experience a very respectful and loving relationship between a man and a woman for 30+ years. My father is the kind of man who would speak few words, but would lead by example. He had the ability with just a simple look to convey something very meaningful. He grew up in a different time and was presented with limited opportunities. Whether it was track, wrestling, golf camps in the summer, advanced tutoring, and vacations to non-traditional places, we had more exposure than most. He and my late mother (Linda Johnson) removed many roadblocks and valued education which attributed to many of our future successes. The expectation we were presented with as children was to achieve our potential, anything less would not be acceptable. That expectation will be passed down to our families as well.”
Sons Ryan and Van Jr., present their father with a special trophy recognizing his hole-in-one that was made a few months prior to the induction ceremony.
The LED light turns on automatically when connected to devices and will stay on while charging. You’ll also not have to worry about the balance of power, as the Kodiak Power Bank’s last LED light will flash when the battery status is low. Take it anywhere.
