Beat The Pro
Test your knowledge against Levy each Saturday morning in Backspin’s popular contest! Rick Levy makes his pick to win the next PGA Tour event, then it’s your turn. Answer one of the “Man from Van’s’” three questions and you get a chance to play against Rick. If you beat him, you win a box of your favorite golf balls from Van’s Golf Shops. BUT if your pick wins the event, you get ALL the money in the pot – which builds $50 per week thanks to Van’s. There are other ways to come up big on Backspin each week, so tune in and get up on your game with the Valley’s most listened to golf show – Backspin!
