LPGA tournament kicks off Friday in South Bend

SOUTH BEND, Ind. -- LPGA tournament kicks off Friday in South Bend but the are not just going to be teeing up.

Several pro golfers spent the morning at Memorial Children's Hospital in South Bend.

They talked with the kids, gave them goodies and even signed some golf balls.

"Just learn to be really thankful for everything you have," Jaclyn Sweeney, a golfer on the LPGA tour, said. "And for me a bad day on the course is nothing. Just be outside and doing what I love to do for a job is really a blessing."

Golfers will be helping out the Food Bank of Northern Indiana on Wednesday.
