Symetra Tour brings former STM golfer home

DECATUR — Katie Jean can enjoy some home-cooked meals this week.

The opportunity to sleep in her own bed growing up, too.

Plus, the former St. Thomas More golfer and Rantoul native will have her father, Rick, caddying for her when play starts Friday in the 31st annual Decatur-Forsyth Classic at Hickory Point Golf Course.

The 24-year-old Jean is back in central Illinois as part of the Symetra Tour event this weekend.

The Symetra Tour is right below the LPGA, similar to what the Web.com Tour is compared to the PGA Tour on the men’s side.
