Why "Lovey's"

Lovey's Golf Center is named for Carmen's mom. It's his own club shop, where he regrips, reshafts, adjusts loft and lie, swing weights, custom stamps and fits clubs himself.

The First Tee of Pittsburgh

As a junior golfer, Carmen helped bring The First Tee to Pittsburgh, sitting on its junior advisory board. The City of Pittsburgh recognized that work with a proclamation.

PGA HOPE

Carmen is PGA HOPE certified to coach veterans with disabilities, including amputees and veterans working through mental health challenges, and to host his own PGA HOPE clinics.
