PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Florida — On the eve of THE PLAYERS Championship, the PGA TOUR’s flagship event, Jack and Barbara Nicklaus joined TOUR officials to urge the global golf community to Play Yellow for children’s hospitals and help raise $100 million over the next five years.
For years, the Nicklaus family has supported Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals®, recognizing their reliance on donations to fund pediatric care insurance programs do not cover. In partnership with CMN Hospitals, the Nicklaus family, along with support from the PGA TOUR and many of its partners, is encouraging the golf community to fill this funding gap in pediatric healthcare through the Play Yellow campaign.
Outreach for support of the Play Yellow campaign began earlier this year, and the list of core partners grows daily. The list thus far includes: the PGA TOUR, THE PLAYERS, the Memorial Tournament presented by Nationwide, Travelers Championship, Topgolf, Callaway, Srixon, the TPC Network, PGA TOUR Superstore, Marriott Golf, TaylorMade, Titleist, FootJoy and Golf Digest.
