Children with autism team up with pro golfers at TPC Sawgrass

At least 16 children who are on the autism spectrum hit the links at TPC Sawgrass Tuesday.

It was thanks to local programs Help Us Golf and Helping Enrich Autistic Lives.

The programs paired kids with pro golfers from TPC Sawgrass for the three-day event.

“Getting to see [my son] with no boundaries, being with other kids just like him and not having a care in the world,” Hannah Burke said about the program.
