ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — Albuquerque native and four-time PGA Tour winner, Notah Begay III, is expected to be back in the metro after receiving a PGA Tour award.

The award honors the recipient’s character, sportsmanship and commitment to charitable giving.
Begay will be honored at an award ceremony, set for Aug. 25 in downtown Atlanta.
