Stricker bobblehead a huge hit at John Deere Classic

Posted:

SILVIS, Ill. (WKOW) -- Many of the world's top golfers take this week off to prepare for next week's British Open, but not Steve Stricker.

Stricker would never skip the John Deere Classic, especially with the way the last three years have gone.

Stricker won't arrive in Silvis, Ill., until Wednesday, but the Edgerton native was there in bobblehead form on Tuesday.

Stricker has won the John Deere Classic for the last three years, and he's going for the four-peat this time around.

That makes him a pretty popular guy in Silvis; in fact, more than 500 fans picked up their own Steve Stricker bobblehead on Tuesday.

Jon Griffith has more from TPC Deere Run. Click on the video icon for the full story.
