PHOTOS: PGA TOUR Wives Classic at the Waste Management Phoenix Open
January 28, 2015
PHOENIX- On January 27, members of the PGA TOUR Wives Association took on TPC Scottsdale’s Champions Course in a nine-hole scramble benefiting several charities, including "Blessings in a Backpack" programs in Phoenix.
With Super Bowl XLIX being contested at the University of Phoenix Stadium the same week as the Waste Management Phoenix Open, the friendly, shoot-out featured a football theme, with PGA TOUR pros "on the bag," serving as caddies for their spouses.
“Blessings in a Backpack” is a national program which provides elementary schoolchildren on the federal Free and Reduced Price Meal Program with a backpack of food to take home on weekends during the school year.
