Great News: Klauk Returns To Golf Next Week

Garry Smits with the news that Jeff Klauk, promising PGA Tour pro who had brain surgery to alleviate epilepsy symptoms, will be teeing up in next week's Albertson's Boise Open.

"I'm going out there to try and win, or else I wouldn't go," said Klauk, whose last professional start was the Web.com Tour's Wichita event June 16-19, 2011. "I've been working hard and practicing just as much as I ever did."

Klauk had a procedure in Atlanta April 20 in which doctors put 108 electrodes into his brain, then monitored activity during subsequent seizures.

Klauk's seizures are coming from the left side of his brain and he can elect to have another surgery in the future, which will be more invasive, in a more critical area.
