WHO IS HITTING THE LINKS??? EVERYONE!!!

Phil Immordino, president of Golf Tournament Association of America (GTAA), says the number of tournaments and outings in the U.S. is on the upswing to about 800,000 outings, of which 90% are charity outings. Over 24 million Americans play the sport.

There’s a reason for the popularity of charity golf tournaments: They’re a massive draw to players who love the sport and enjoy a day on the greens; they provide excellent exposure to sponsors; and, of course, it all goes to a good cause. “Not only are charity golf events extremely important from a business and financial perspective, but they’re also emotionally and professionally rewarding because they’re raising funds for a wide range of causes,” says Derek R. Haskins, president and co-founder, ELITE PROMO INC, formerly ELITE Golf & Promotional Group.
