Local golfer Carson Caccamise recently qualified and competed in the Teen World Golf Championship at Pinehurst No. 2 in Pinehurst, N.C. The competition featured the 105 top teen golfers in the world.

Earlier this summer, Caccamise placed eighth in the Golfweek US Western Regional Championship played at PGA West in La Quinta.
