A pair of PGA Tour pros paid a visit to Black Sheep Golf Club in Sugar Grove on Friday. For Tour rookie Kevin Streelman, the visit was a homecoming.

Streelman was joined by fellow pro Kevin Stadler at the acclaimed private course. Streelman has close ties to Black Sheep and is the course's touring professional.

Streelman is enjoying plenty of success during his first year on the Tour. He's earned $526,516 and is No. 110 on the Tour's money list. He has three top-15 finishes this year.

With the PGA Tour coming close to home, Streelman decided to take this week off and skip the John Deere Classic in Silvis. He'll reportedly return to action next weekend at the U.S. Bank Championship in Milwaukee.
