Worplesdon Charity Golf Pro Am
In June 2020, we were delighted to sponsor a Golf Pro Am event at Worplesdon Golf Club in Surrey. The event was staged to provide a competitive tournament for golfers ahead of them returning to professional golf post the Covid lock down, and at the same time raise money for two great charities – Dan’s Fund for Burns and The Rainbow Trust – a charity providing support for seriously ill children and their families.
The event was a resounding success on a beautiful day, featured 16 European tour winners including the hosts – Andy Sullivan and Paul Waring – as well as a number of rising stars in the mens and ladies game such as Georgia Hall, Charley Hull and Inci Mehmet. The men featured a number of big names including Ross Fisher, Paul Broadhurst, Colin Montgomery, Thomas Detry (who won the event) and my playing partner, Phillip Price, who memorably beat Phil Mickelson in the Sunday singles in the 2002 Ryder Cup, which was a crucial match in securing the European victory that year.
We were delighted to be part of raising over £50,000 for the two charities and this video provides a wonderful summary of the day.
