Dec 02, 2019: As part of ongoing relief and rebuilding efforts following Hurricane Dorian, the Hero World Challenge announced today that additional donations will be made to the ONE Bahamas Fund through a charity challenge to the players.
During the 2019 Hero World Challenge, the tournament will make a donation of $500 for each birdie, $1,000 for each eagle and $2,500 for each hole in one made by the professionals in competition rounds at Albany Wednesday, December 4 – Saturday, December 7.
In October, the tournament announced that proceeds from the 2019 Hero World Challenge would benefit the TGR Foundation and ONE Bahamas Fund, established to help the rebuilding efforts with a focus on education, housing and business restarts.
Founded by Tiger Woods, actor and musician Justin Timberlake, NEXUS Luxury Collection, members of the Albany community and Royal Bank of Canada (RBC) following Hurricane Dorian, ONE Bahamas Fund has pledged $6 million toward the efforts with a dollar-for-dollar match in hopes of raising $12 million to help those impacted by the hurricane.
The Hero World Challenge will be held Wednesday, December 4 – Saturday, December 7, with live television coverage provided by GOLF Channel during all four rounds and by NBC during the final round.
