Ken Green, long-time PGA and Champions Tour golfer, was traveling between golf tournaments on June 8th when his RV blew out a tire and ended up in a terrible accident. In addition to losing his brother, girlfriend and dog in the accident, Ken required multiple surgeries and ultimately had his leg amputated.
Ken’s friends from all parts of his life immediately banded together and organized two benefit golf tournaments to help cover his considerable medical bills. The tournament organizers hope to raise a minimum of $200,000 in each Pro-AM for this man who has done so much to help others through the years.
Please show your support for Ken as he makes his bid to become the first golfer to compete on the Champions Tour with a prosthetic leg. Join us in supporting Ken by participating in the tournament, bidding in our auction, or purchasing one of the great looking KG hats.
