Mark Calcavecchia, 11-23-09, “Ken needs help & we’re here to give it to him.”

5-time PGA Tour Winner Ken Green was traveling between Champions Tour events on June 8, 2009 when his RV blew a tire, causing a horrific accident.  He not only lost his loyal Brother Bill, his partner-in-life Jeanne Hodgin, and his beloved German Shepherd Nip, but he suffered terrible injuries himself, including having his right leg amputated below the knee 3 days later.

Fighting through intense physical & emotional pain, Ken has been courageously Forging a Comeback ever since, vowing to do everything in his power to become the 1st player ever to play on the Champions Tour as an Amputee.  Ever the giver, Ken has amassed a huge number of friends that Love & Appreciate his unselfish generosity, his goodness, his truly unique humor, and his honorable view of Friendship.  Two benefit ProAM’s, featuring 40+ PGA & CHAMP. Tour players (9-28-09/DanburyCT & 11-23-09/WPB) each raised $100,000+.  The PGA Tour established a Ken Green Trust Fund.  The PGA players voted to donate ½ of All 2010 Wed. Pro-AM purses to Ken and equally hard-hit fellow Pro Chris Smith.  The GWAA will present the 2010 Ben Hogan Award (“given annually to a golfer who remains active in the sport despite a physical handicap”) to KG & Tom Watson on April 7 in Augusta, the night before The Masters.

Please show your support for Ken in his Comeback Efforts.  Follow his BLOG updates and send him your Best Wishes by posting Comments to them!
