DEAR FELLOW GOLFERS,

A good friend and PGA Tour veteran once told me there are two kinds of golfers; the ones who play for money and the ones who play for trophies.

As lovers of the game and given the skirmish the PGA Tour is in with the LIV Series, it's time that we, the grassroots of the game, show our support for the guys who play for trophies as well as their charities, sponsors, and partners.

If not for the PGA Tour, there'd be no charitable giving from tournaments that have positively affected hundreds of cities across the country, including our own; there'd be fewer growth of the game's initiatives.

To that end, I humbly ask that you support the PGA Tour and its players by making a contribution--no matter how small--to a Richmond PGA Tour-related charity like:

First Tee - Greater Richmond 

www.firstteegreaterrichmond.org

(804) 378-2188

The Virginia Veterans Services Foundation www.virginiaveteransservicesfoundation.org  

(804) 225-4748

The Richmond Fisher House 

www.richmondfisherhouse.org

(804) 675-6639

Let's show our appreciation for everything the PGA Tour has done for our sport and our community, and tell the golf world that just like the PGA Tour players, all of us in Richmond, Virginia also want to play for trophies.

Thank you.

Giff Breed
