Spain's Sergio Garcia placed ninth in FedExCup standings and had two secondplace finishes, including a runner-up at the British Open. SECTION 9 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION 9 SECTION Making a positive impact on the communities where PGA TOUR tournaments are held and players live is a sure sign that the golf organization’s charitable mission is a continuing success story all around the world. This effort was celebrated in late 2005 when the PGA TOUR and its tournaments reached the “Drive to a Billion” milestone. That cumulative effect, since the first donation in 1938, has reached more than $1.2 billion entering 2008. The forecast is for the second billion-dollar mark to be reached in the next five to seven years. PGA TOUR, Champions Tour and Nationwide Tour events annually benefit more than 2,000 charities and countless individuals worldwide. “Thanks to the incredible generosity of the tournaments, players, fans, volunteers and business partners who support the PGA TOUR, our goal of giving back continues to be our main focus,” PGA TOUR Commissioner Tim Finchem said. “We are inspired by the continued enthusiasm for giving that ensures more and more assistance is generated for those in need around the world.” Structure Unlike any other professional sport, the PGA TOUR relies on more than 80,000 volunteers a year to run its events, and nearly all of the 100-plus tournaments are structured as non-profit organizations designed to donate 100 percent of net proceeds to local charities. Beneficiaries include a wide variety of local organizations such as hospitals, youth-development organizations, growth-of-the-game programs and food banks. The beneficiaries include the 2006 Charities of the Year on each of the Tours – Any Baby Can in San Antonio, TX (Valero Texas Open on the PGA TOUR), The Corner Table in Newton, NC (Greater Hickory Classic at Rock Barn on the Champions Tour) and Rochester Golf Charities in Rochester, MN, (2006 Showdown at Somerby on the Nationwide Tour). The impact is also made by volunteers such as the 2006 Volunteers of the Year on the respective Tours – Marty Sheets of the PGA TOUR’s Wyndham Championship in Greensboro, NC, Joe McDonald at the Champions Tour’s Turtle Bay Championship in Hawaii and Oran Culberson at the Nationwide Tour’s Knoxville Open (Tennessee). Tournaments Tournaments provide the leadership. The Valero Texas Open on the PGA TOUR, the Toshiba Classic, 3M Championship and Wal-Mart First Tee Open at Pebble Beach on the Champions Tour and the Albertsons Boise Open and BMW Charity Pro-Am on the Nationwide Tour provided the largest donations to charity in 2007 on each Tour. The EDS Byron Nelson Championship continued its high level of giving by totaling more than $100 million cumulatively. The FBR Open in Phoenix raised $7.8 million in 2007, topped only by the Valero Texas Open’s record $8 million in giving for the year. 9-2 Charity: Giving Back...The Heart of the PGA TOUR In the communities where tournaments take place, giving back remains at the heart of the PGA TOUR. PGA TOUR 2008 Guide In The Presidents Cup, there is no purse, yet revenues are divided into equal shares that the participating players and Captains designate for charities of their choice, totaling more than $17 million in the seven playings of the event. “This heartfelt response year after year is a tribute to the players, tournaments and thousands of volunteers who make PGA TOUR events so successful,” said Ollie Nutt, Chairman of the Tournament Advisory Council. “We look forward to continuing the tradition of making a true difference for organizations and in peoples’ lives in cities where we play.” Players Players also reach out to help considerably through charitable efforts in their home communities and elsewhere. Support of the United States military was quite evident in 2007. The inaugural AT&T National in Bethesda, MD, over the Fourth of July weekend honored the United States military by offering free admission to all military personnel and holding various events around the tournament. Host Tiger Woods paid tribute to his late father, Earl, a Green Beret veteran, by focusing on those who serve our country through various activities. “I think that when you're around it, you understand the level of commitment,’’ Woods said. “I know I can't serve with them, but I just want to say thank you in some way. They put their lives on the line so that we are able to enjoy our freedom.’’ Phil Mickelson, the world’s No. 2-ranked player, began a “Birdies for the Brave” program in 2004 that continues to donate $100 for each birdie and $500 for each eagle he makes in competition and benefits “Homes for Our Troops” and “Special Operations Warrior Foundation.” Numerous other players are affiliated with organizations that assist wounded veterans and their families. Players support amateur golf in various capacities also. Australia’s Aaron Baddeley has sponsored the Aaron Baddeley International Junior Championship in China each December for seven years, with the winning boys and girls earning spots in the Australian men’s and women’s opens. Bubba Watson sponsors the Bubba Watson Invitational, a women’s NCAA Division II golf tournament at his home course in Pace, FL. Fred Funk, who plays on both the PGA TOUR and Champions Tour, has assisted J.T. Townsend, a young man who was paralyzed in a 2004 Jacksonville, FL, high school football game. Funk has spearheaded fund-raisers, including an annual golf tournament, and given a percentage of his earnings to help Townsend’s family pay for a wheelchair-accessible home that includes other special amenities. The Townsend family moved into the home in late 2006. “We've been praying for an angel to come into our lives, and Fred (Funk) appeared,” Carmen Townsend, J.T.'s mother, said. “He could have just greeted J.T. and left.” PGATOUR.COM
