The PGA Champions Tour heads out to TPC Sugarloaf this weekend. But this time, there is more than just golf on the agenda. Like every year, the tournament will focus on charitable donations for its locals, with social works on the swing across the golf week.

Additionally, the SNS of Gwinnett School of Children with special needs will be helped by the collections during the week. To thank the golfers for their participation, the students of the school made a remarkable gesture, which delighted the veterans.

The players read out a section of their letters, which undoubtedly made them proud. “Fight to learn. It’s a game that I might make when I get older,” read out four-time PGA Tour winner Billy Andrade.

Like others, the letter warmed the heart of the 59-year-old, who had words of encouragement for the letter’s author. “Nolan’s got it figured out because he’s got a plaid shirt on and it’s crimson,” he said while showing a picture drawn by Nolan. “I think Nolan might be making it on the PGA Tour and then head to the Champions Tour in about 50 years,” Andrade further claimed.
