Golfers play through as flames burn nearby
October 13, 2008
LOS ANGELES (AP) -Some golfers just keep right on playing, even as a wildfire rages in the mountains above them.
A fire broke out Monday morning in the Santa Susana Mountains overlooking the course at Porter Valley Country Club. Then strong winds arrived, and the whipping flames and blankets of smoke moved away from the course.
Golf pro Sue Schroer says the golfers decided to stay where they were and no one was ordered to evacuate.
About 140 golfers are on the course, taking part in the club's Dennis Casey Memorial Tournament.
