University of Kentucky Professor Named Recipient of 2010 USGA Green Section Award |
|
Kentucky's family of golf organizations congratulate University of Kentucky Professor Dr. Daniel Potter for being honored with the 2010 United States Golf Association (USGA) Green Section Award. The award is presented annually by the USGA to recognize individuals who exemplify outstanding contributions and dedication to the game of golf through their work with turfgrass.
“I am very humbled and honored to receive such recognition from the USGA,” said Potter. “I have been doing this for more than 30 years and along with helping students attain their goals, the greatest satisfaction has been teaching and learning from professional turf and landscape managers. Golf superintendents, in particular, have alerted me to new pest problems and assisted us with on-site research.”
Potter graduated from Cornell University in 1974 and earned his Ph.D. from The Ohio State University in 1978. He has been a faculty member in the Department of Entomology at the University of Kentucky since 1979 and was promoted to the rank of full Professor in 1989.
