While the Masters golf tournament was in its opening round Thursday, another golf tournament with a Masters theme was taking place in north Phoenix at the Sagewood senior living community.
The Sagewood Residents Foundation held its second annual Putt Fore Scholarships fundraising tournament on an 18-hole putting course at the facility, the greens in pristine condition and dozens of men and women who call Sagewood home taking part.
Proceeds from the tournament, which was residents-only in the morning and expanded to include guests after a lunch, go to Sagewood staff members and children of staff members to help pay for the costs of furthering their own of their sons’ or daughters’ education.
Organizer Barbra O’Brien, a former professional golfer, tied in the Masters to her event. Lunch on Thursday included foods found at Augusta National Golf Club, such as the famous pimento cheese sandwich. You can also contact us today to learn more and schedule a visit!
