Kansas golfer Bryce Pinter, a senior at Maranatha Christian Academy, is proving dwarfism doesn't define limits, it defines resilience. Competing with no special accommodations and using the same clubs as everyone else, Bryce has finished Top 10 in every tournament this season and recently shot a career-best 77.
Off the course, he's already helped raise millions through his advocacy work with Variety KC. Now, he's chasing two dreams: qualifying for state…and one day going to Augusta National.
THE OWNERS.
Tonight at 10p, the first story in our exclusive “World Cup Owners Series” airs as we sit down one-on-one with the people who helped bring the biggest sporting event on earth to Kansas City.
First up: Chris Long w/ the KC Current his and his wife’s contributions to Kansas City sports and bringing the world to our city have been immense. Next: Cliff Illig, arguably the single biggest force behind landing the FIFA World Cup here. And finally: Clark Hunt, whose leadership also played a major role in making this happen.
Months of planning, access, interviews, and storytelling all leading to this moment...and somehow in the middle of it all…we ended up on horseback shooting another exclusive World Cup report.
But seriously none of this happens alone. Huge shoutout to the photographers & the many others behind the scenes helping turn this into a true team effort. World-class stories take a world-class crew.
& Of course FOX4 your home for the World Cup!
