Summary
The APGA Tour is at Baltusrol this week for the Cisco Invitational and I was lucky to go out and play a little golf in the pro-am and chat with two of the rising stars on the tour, Aaron Beverly and Kamaiu Johnson. We chatted about the year, the growth of this tour, the impact brands like Cisco make on players working towards the PGA Tour, and plenty more.
A shoutout to Cisco, Baltusrol, and of course, Aaron and Kamaui for the time!

| 0:49.7 | event and a really cool one at that. I love what the APGA tour is doing. I love what |
| 0:54.6 | Cisco's doing and you know it's important to play these big boy golf courses for |

| 1:18.0 | what Cisco's doing with them because they're doing an excellent job. I got a chance to |
