PGA Tour profesional Fred Couples raises his arms but fails to make a hole in one at a mini–golf course on the plaza at LA Live on Novmber 11, 2010. An urban golf event involved sixth grade math students in Teach For America from Stephenson Middle School in E. Los Angeles and the students were rewarded for their hard work in mathematics with the fun–filled golf experience. The event celebrates the upcoming Chevron World Challenge, a PGA Tour co–sponsored event and the World Challenge features 18 of the world's best golfers and benefits education–focused nonprofits. If Couples made the hole in one, then Chevron would have donated $15,000 to the education nonprofit partners. LA Live plaza was transformed on Thursday (one day only) into a picturesque urban mini–golf oasis complete wth a 9–hole course, sand trap, pro shop and clubhouse. Couples also gave golf pointers to the students. (Photo by Gary Friedman/Los Angeles Times via Getty Images)
