HAMPTON TOWNSHIP, Pa. (KDKA) — Founded in 1960, Wildwood Golf Club is hidden gem here in the Pittsburgh area and features one of nicest Par 4’s in all of Western Pennsylvania.
“Number 13 at Wildwood is just a beautiful golf hole,” said Wildwood Head Golf Professional David Yokitis.
Not only is #13 beautiful, but a demanding dogleg right that can play up to 430 yards.
“It requires a little bit of a fade off the tee,” Yokitis said. “Hitting the fairway is a must off the first shot here.”
Hitting the fairway requires a precise shot from the tee with a fairway bunker on the right and trees on the left.
“If you blow it way right, you can hit it out of bounds down the right side,” Yokitis said.
“Anything on this green is a bonus,” Yokitis said, speaking to the difficulty of the hole, which features a deceptively-large green.
“You take your 4 and you move on,” Yokitis said of making a par alongside KDKA-TV’s Rich Walsh.

SHANKSVILLE, Pa. (KDKA) — On Monday morning, Western Pennsylvania National Parks Superintendent Stephen Clark made a big announcement.
“I have been so looking forward to this day where I could say that the 9/11 National Memorial Trail alignments, through three of the National Park units in Western Pennsylvania, have been completed.”
The completed alignment now connects the Flight 93 Memorial in Shanksville to the Johnstown Flood National Memorial and the Allegheny Portage Railroad National Historic Site. And this small portion of the 1,500-mile 9/11 Memorial Trail ultimately connects the Flight 93 Memorial to the other Sept. 11 sites in New York and Virginia.
The National Park Service says that connecting all these state and federal lands into one trail system wouldn’t be possible without the work of the nonprofit group the September 11th National Memorial Trail Alliance.
Two alliance members from Pittsburgh, Daniel Wille and Matt Harris, were on hand on Monday to not only hear the official announcement but to ride a portion of the trail.
Wille says that he hopes this trail will help bring a divided country back together.
“This trail is a remembrance,” said Wille. “It’s a connectivity, and an attempt to provide a positive view of America that I feel we are losing. And I feel it gives us hope. It gives us all hope that as this thing develops, Americans will kind of find their place again and their strength.”
The 9/11 Memorial Trail is still a work in progress, but at least this on and off-road section is open for folks to explore and remember the victims and the heroes of 9/11.
