Feel Good

Watch out, Scottie. Local 4-year-old Levi Antal recently became the youngest golfer to make a hole-in-one at the Beverly Park Short Course — which, by the way, is a great free kids activity.

Traffic

A recent study by Consumer Affairs named Knoxville second on a list of cities with the worst drivers in the United States. At least we’re not first (lookin’ at you, Memphis). (WATE 6)

Eat

Fall is the season for flavor on Alabama’s Beaches, from waterfront seafood to local brews. Start planning a culinary getaway for bites with a view, and seasonal favorites like the 52nd Annual Shrimp Fest.*
