WHAT: AREA 313 CELEBRITY SCRAMBLE PRESENTED BY CDW
The three-hole charitable exhibition will pair select professional golfers playing in the Rocket Mortgage Classic with celebrity athletes and entertainers. This year, the event allows for corporate partners of the tournament to donate to sponsor the teams. AREA 313 (holes 14-16 at Detroit Golf Club) has already established itself as one of the most entertaining trio of holes on the PGA TOUR, and now the event aims to make them “The Most Charitable Three Holes in Golf.” The tournament’s goal is to raise more than $1 million through fan engagements and returning initiatives at its highly-acclaimed three-hole stretch, AREA 313, as part of a larger fundraising effort to support the tournament’s multi-year Changing the Course initiative to end the digital divide in Detroit.
New to the Rocket Mortgage Classic in 2021 is the “Faces of AREA 313 Presented by Priority Health” program. It enables companies and community members to pledge $313 or more for their face, that of a fellow fan, first responder, frontline worker or loved one lost from the COVID-19 pandemic to be prominently displayed on an electronic videoboard or along the hospitality structures within AREA 313. Each donation will be matched dollar for dollar by Priority Health, which has pledged $50,000 to the initiative.
Faces are available to purchase by visiting the Ticketing or Face of AREA 313 pages, and each purchase is accompanied by a pair of tickets that allows fans access to the event Monday, June 28 and Tuesday, June 29. The donation will also allow fans to secure a pair of VIP tickets to the Cadillac Clubhouse Lawn with elevated food and beverage options for purchase during one day of competition (Thursday–Sunday). This in the ONLY way for fans to secure access to the AREA 313 Celebrity Scramble, as general admission tickets will not be sold for Tuesday, June 29, and these tickets are extremely limited.
WHO: PGA TOUR stars Phil Mickelson, Bryson DeChambeau, Bubba Watson, Harold Varner III, Jason Day and Rickie Fowler will each captain a four-player team consisting of celebrities that will include Larry Fitzgerald, Barry Sanders, Tom Izzo, Lexi Thompson and Maurice Allen. Each team will also include a participant from The John Shippen National Invitational and a sponsor representative.
