Heartwarming Photos: The Wedels At The MacKenzie
/Even though Cal was busy winning their third straight tournament, my alma mater Pepperdine scored the most moving story at the recent Alister MacKenzie Invitational when Frederick Wedel's dad, Fred, watched his son play for the first time since Frederick was 14.
Fred, who had started teaching his son when the sophomore was 3, has been a quadriplegic since Frederick was in the eighth grade. Fred lives near Sonoma Golf Club where the event was played and surprised Frederick. Photos of the beautiful moment have been posted on the team's Facebook page, including when Frederick spots the special spectator during his opening round.
Great stuff!
