Caddy For A Cure

Caddy For A Cure, Inc., the opportunity of a golfing lifetime to go inside the ropes & caddy for the world's best players at PGA TOUR venues, announces the participation of world-class PGA TOUR player, Rich Beem, at the upcoming AT&T Classic at TPC Sugarloaf in Duluth, Georgia, on May 13th. Caddy For A Cure offers PGA TOUR player caddy opportunities through its website & online auction services. Caddy For A Cure donates 100% of the auction proceeds to charity, including the Fanconi Anemia Research Fund, which is the inspiration behind the Caddy For A Cure program.

The caddy opportunity for the AT&T Classic is for PGA Championship winner, Rich Beem. Although Beem is well known as a PGA TOUR major champion, the 2003 PGA Championship, he is perhaps better known for his "happy dance" he performed after winning a Nissan Altima Coupe following a Par-3 ace at the Nissan Open in 2007 or for his book about he and his former Tour caddy, the late Steve Duplantis, "Bud, Sweat and Tees: A Walk on the Wild Side of the PGA Tour".

The caddy auction for Rich Beem began on Thursday, April 24th, 2008, & ends Thursday, May 1st, 2008. If necessary, the auction will be extended. The caddy date is Tuesday, May 13th.

"We are thrilled to be able to offer this caddy opportunity for Rich Beem at the AT&T Classic tournament" comments Russ Holden, Caddy For A Cure founder & veteran PGA TOUR caddy. He added, "Every player on the PGA TOUR is incredibly talented, but to be able to be one-on-one & see a player's game who has won a major championship is a special experience. But the added bonus is Rich Beem is not only a great player, he's also just a great guy to be around."
