KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- The Tennessee Lady Vol golf team will be teaming up with the Knoxville affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure to host a free women's and girls' golf clinic on Sunday, Oct. 2, at the Mack and Jonnie Day Golf Practice Facility in conjunction with the Mercedes-Benz SEC/PAC-12 Challenge later in the month.
The free clinic will run from 4-5:30 p.m. and each participant will receive a gift bag that includes items from the Susan G. Komen foundation as well as a team photo that can be used for autographs.
The clinic will include instruction, drills and contests led by Lady Vol head coach Judi Pavon and the UT women's golf team. Participants will also receive a coupon that they can redeem at the golf tournament the weekend of Oct. 21-Oct.23 for a free Lady Vol t-shirt.
"We are excited to host the second annual Lady Vol golf clinic for women and girls in Tennessee. After great success with the 2010 clinic, we will continue to give back to our community by hosting another clinic," Pavon said. "We hope to bring even more awareness to our program and to help develop an interest in the game for females at every age. Our players and coaches will be hands-on to help each participant improve their game in all areas, including ball striking, chipping and putting.

"It will also be an opportunity to showcase our Mack and Jonnie Day Golf practice facility to golfers across East Tennessee. We are hoping participants will attend both the clinic and the tournament, which is also free."

The Mercedes-Benz SEC/PAC-12 Challenge will be held at Holston Hills Country Club Oct. 21-23.
Fans will be able to donate money to the Susan G. Komen foundation during the tournament either in bins or by pledging an amount for every birdie Tennessee makes during the weekend.
