The weather was fantastic this year for the 7th Annual Ally Challenge, once again drawing crowds for an exciting week of competitive golf, charitable initiatives and fan-favorite activities.
Family Fun Night kicked off the event on Thursday with youth activities including music, free food and a Q&A with PGA Tour Champions. On Friday, the tournament introduced Folds of Honor Friday, honoring U.S. service members and first responders with a breakfast and enhanced ceremonies, also providing 13 scholarships to southeastern Michigan students through Folds of Honor. The day wrapped up with the Concert @17 starring Smash Mouth.
After a flawless weekend of bogey-free golf, eight-time PGA Tour winner Stewart Cink claimed victory on Sunday with a four-shot win over K.J. Choi, tying the tournament scoring record with a 17-under 199. Cink’s triumph capped off an eventful tournament, which included Saturday’s fan-fave Celebrity Challenge featuring teams led by Michigan native Jeff Daniels, Quinn XCII and LPGA legends, raising $30,000 for local charities. Attendees also enjoyed an adaptive golf clinic, a performance by country music star Thomas Rhett and an exciting drone show.
Through its charitable efforts, the event awarded $50,000 to the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Flint.
