Jimmy Rollins with a Hole in One to Win a Boat
Published:
Great weekend for Jimmmmmmmmy Rollllins <Harry Kalas voice> –
The American Century Championship is the celebrity tournament out in Tahoe. It’s a charity event, this year benefiting the Stowers Institute for Medical Research. In past years, money has been raised for organizations like Wounded Warrior Project, Equal Justice Initiative, and American Cancer Society.
But yeah, awesome for J Roll, now hitting golf balls like its game four of the 2008 World Series. This year’s tournament was won by Joe Pavelski, who walked it off with an Eagle. John Smoltz came in second. Larry the Cable Guy finished 78th with a -31. Git r done! They used modified Stableford scoring for this tournament.
Congrats to J Roll on his new boat:
