PF And The Figd Team on the Newspaper Il Secolo XIX

Don't call them disabled. Federico Rocchetti is going to compete with professional players at the Open in Rapallo and he's sure to make it well. Yesterday, during the Pro-Am, he trained with Edgar Scalvini, 26 years old; Edgar, since he was 18, plays golf on a special wheelchair. 

"Golf is important in my life", says Scalvini. "I started playing when I was 13, at my golf club in Brescia. When I had the car accident and I understood I'd never walk again, one of my thoughts was 'Will I play golf again?' Thanks to the FIGD I could use this wheelchair and do it. The only problem is that the wheelchair is so heavy: 190 Kgs, and I need the help oh three persons to put it on my car".
