Following yesterday morning’s
$10,000 check presentation to Folds of Honor (insert hyperlink) as part of The RSM Classic’s Military Appreciation
Day, Round 3 of the tournament got underway under a spectacular Golden Isles
sunny sky. Professional play ended with Canadian rookie Mackenzie Hughes in the
lead. Hughes, who got married in his only week off this fall, has actually led
at Sea Island from his opening 61 on the Seaside course. But, the day is young…
Another highlight: fans who
donated to Folds of Honor (a nonprofit organization that provides educational
scholarships to children and spouses of those killed or disabled while serving
our nation) throughout the day were given an opportunity to participate in a Million Dollar Challenge immediately
following professional play. Participants competed in a closest-to-the-pin
contest, with 13 finalists qualifying for a one-shot challenge round. While no
one shot a hole-in-one and won the million dollar prize, there was no shortage
of encouragement from the fans throughout the contest, which sent the finalist
who hit the shot closest to the pin home with a grand prize package, which
included a stay for two on the island.
