The way things have been going this week -- rainy -- one of the busiest people at the Ensure Classic at Rock Barn has been the Champions Tour on-site meteorologist, Willis Young.
He travels with the tour to each stop and advises the tournament staffs on the weather conditions. And he issues the official forecast for each event.
