Darrow, who honed her golf game as a youngster under the watchful eye of Sebring Golf Club professional Tom McClurg, was named as the assistant pro at the venerable club on Tuesday. Darrow, whose maiden name is Best, played on the boys golf team and graduated from Avon Park in 1998, and is thrilled to be back in the Heartland and involved in golf. "I'm so excited to be back home and getting a chance to learn the golf business from Tom," the 27-year-old said. "I practiced here when I was a kid and worked in the pro shop when I was in high school, so I know a lot of people that play here. "I respect Tom so much, and I'm motivated to learn everything I can.
