Texas Golf HOF Announces Class of 2018
The latest inductees to the Texas Golf Hall of Fame followed similar paths, from humble beginnings to golf’s biggest stage.
The Hall announced its 2018 class on Tuesday, July 17. Chad Campbell, Billy Ray Brown, Bill Moretti and Bill Macatee, along with Austin Country Club, will be honored in a ceremony at San Antonio Country Club on Monday, October 8.
“I’m not surprised that we have such a strong class this year,” said Loren Singletary, Board Chairman of the Texas Golf Hall of Fame. “I was really pleased with the quality of the nominations, so I knew the inductees would be outstanding. We are really pleased to honor this remarkable group.”
The 2018 class has come a long way to be commemorated on granite markers on the prestigious Texas Golf Walk of Fame at historic Brackenridge Park Golf Course.
This will be the Texas Golf Hall of Fame’s ninth class to be inducted since the Hall’s reconstitution in 2009. Public nominations made online were voted on by living Hall members, the Texas Golf Hall of Fame Board of Directors, and designated Texas golf media members.
