GREENSBORO, N.C. (Aug. 11, 2014) -- The 75th annual Wyndham Championship in Greensboro, N.C. teed off today with the fifth annual Kevin Harvick Foundation Pro-Am Presented by Technology Concepts & Design, Inc. and BB&T.
The Kevin Harvick Foundation Pro-Am once again opens the renowned golf tournament, in an effort to raise money to benefit underprivileged children. The Wyndham Championship runs Aug. 14-17 at Sedgefield Country Club.
Several of the PGA TOUR’s biggest names, including Boo Weekly, John Daly, Chad Campbell, Billy Hurley III and Rocco Mediate, teed off with Harvick, co-founder of The Kevin Harvick Foundation, as well as other amateur golfers on three-person Pro-Am teams.
“Mark Brazil, Bill Johnson of Technology Concepts & Designs, BB&T and the Wyndham Championship have done a great job with Monday’s Pro-Am,” Harvick said. “Over the last five years I have seen our Foundation grow and a big part of that is the commitment and exposure this golf tournament gives us.”
