Heath and Drew Ekstrom completed their “100 plus Golf Hole Challenge” for the Folds of Honor and Patriot Golf Day on Sunday, September 9.

“We golfed together at Superior National and were able to each play 108 holes,” said Heath Ekstrom.

Last year Heath, who is the Business Manager/ Head Golf Professional at Superior National, played 135 holes on Patriot’s Golf Day, breaking his mark of 122 set in 2016.

“We started our day at 6:30 a.m. and golfed until almost dark at 7 p.m.,” said Heath. “We were able to keep pace together of about a 55 minute average per 9-holes.”
