Erica Scutt, 11, has advanced to the next stage in the national Drive, Chip and Putt Competition after taking second place in her age group in a recent event at The First Tee of Chattanooga Player Development Center.

Next up for Scutt is the subregional competition Aug. 27 in Smyrna, Tenn., and a chance to move on to the regional event next month at Sugarloaf Golf Club in Duluth.
