Bill Murray to Play John Deere Classic

revistagq.com

 
Actor and comedian Bill Murray will pack up his clubs and travel to the Quad Cities next week. He'll play in the John Deere Classic pro-am on Wednesday morning, with D.A. Points, at the TPC Deere Run in Silvis. 

Murray has become something of a golf icon after his portrayal of the hapless greens keeper Carl Spackler in the movie "Caddyshack." And, he's always loved golf. He's been a regular at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro Am, where he's known for outrageous outfits and interacting with the spectators.

Murray grew up in Wilmette, a suburb of Chicago, where he caddied when he was a teenager. 
He'll play Wednesday with D.A. Points, who has been on the PGA Tour since 2005. He's won two tournaments and 17 top-10 finishes.
