WGGB’s 2022 Charity Tournament Raises More Than $200,000
WGGB grantees compete in a 5-hole mini tournament
Women Golfers Give Back is thrilled to report that between our June 2022 tournament, online auction, raffle and generous donations, we raised more than $200,000 to support girls golf programs. Thank you to all our sponsors, grants and supporters for making this another record year! And to St. Davids Golf Club for hosting us for a wonderful day.
The day started with a clinic for our younger grantees with LPGA and PGA pros, and a 5-hole competition for our older grantees. See photos of the girls in action and 5-hole tournament winners on the WGGB Facebook page.
After lunch, 20 foursomes of WGGB sponsors and supporters braved a light rain to compete in a one best-ball tournament followed by cocktails and dinner. Tom Coyne, esteemed author of A Course Called America, greeted our players and signed books at hole #9, and our LPGA friend and long-time supporter Val Skinner graced us with her presence and beautiful swing on the par-3 hole #10. See photos of all our playing foursomes on Facebook.
