Drawing more than 60,000 business,
city and community leaders; golf fans;
and 1,000 volunteers, the 2008 Allianz
Championship PGA Champions Tour
event not only brought legendary PGA Champions
such as the 2008 Champion Scott Hoch, plus
Gary Player, Nick Price, Tom Kite, Jay Haas,
Bernhard Langer and Dana Quigley to Boca
Raton for a week, it drove all net proceeds to
Boca Raton Community Hospital. It also took the
lead as the first Florida PGA tournament to
officially “Go Green”, and put the regional,
national and international media spotlight on the
Boca Raton community with print and broadcast
media coverage, including the Golf Channel
broadcasting live from The Old Course at Broken
Sound.
