Paul Azinger, PGA Tour professional and captain of the victorious 2008 U.S. Ryder Cup team, will deliver the keynote speech at the Opening Session of the Golf Course Superintendents Association of America’s (GCSAA) 2009 Education Conference on February 5 in New Orleans.
 
"This will be a fantastic way to open our education conference," said GCSAA President David S. Downing II, CGCS, in making the announcement. "I am sure our members will be interested and excited to hear Paul’s insights on the game, and especially about the Ryder Cup. His understanding of golf course conditioning and course setup clearly indicates his appreciation of golf course superintendents."
