Alfredo Cervantes ( known as Charlie to his Gringo friends) has a passion for golf and for teaching.....
A native of Mexico, Alfredo and his young family returned to Puerto Vallarta after 17 years in Southern California. Shortly after returning a tragic head on collision with a local bus in 1997 occurred. Alfredo awoke from a 42 day coma to learn that his 11 & 14 year old boys and golfing partners were killed. His wife was severely injured as well and his hopes and dreams shattered. Golf he say's "is the only thing that takes my mind off of the pain"
So, six days a week at 4:00 o'clock in the afternoon, a humbled and modest Alfredo closes his Taco stand and heads to the Municipal Stadium in Puerto Vallarta to give free golf lessons to any person wanting his coaching and swing critique. Alfredo say's "with the rising of super star golfer Lorena Ochoa kids of all ages are lining up at his make shift chainlink swing cage. Ochoa is to Mexican kids, what Tiger Woods was to American Kids in the 1990's." Many of the kids he works with have natural talent and clearly enjoy the sport but just cannot advance beyond anything else but the cage at the stadium.
"I just do not have enough clubs, money, or resources to meet the demand, neither do these poor local kids."
