We’ve featured the Gary Player Invitational series before and gave you a brief introduction to what it’s all about. This year, the Gary Player Invitational series was held in four different countries – the USA, England, China and South Africa! In the video above, you’ll see a recap from Gary Player himself about the events!
The USA series was held on April 14 and 15 at the Champions Retreat in Augusta, Georgia (made up of three 9-hole courses designed by Player, Nicklaus and Palmer) in support of underprivileged children’s education. The England series was held at Wentworth in Surrey on July 22, 2013. Again, proceeds went to children’s charities in the area. The third leg of the Gary Player Invitational series was held in Shanghai, China at Shanghai Links on November 4 – 5 with proceeds benefiting the Yunnan Orphans whose lives have been hit hardest by AIDS. And the last series was held at The Lost City Golf Course & The Palace Hotel in Sun City, South Africa on November 14 – 17, 2013. Celebrities, golf pros and other athletes joined Player for a pro-am tournament as well as some lessons and stories from Player himself – all for a good cause!
