Pros take to Torrey Pines
Pro golfers including Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson and John Daly will compete in the Buick Invitational at Torrey Pines Golf Course beginning with today’s opening round. The final is Sunday, Jan. 28.
The tourney, which is run by the Century Club, includes several charitable events. The Boys & Girls Clubs of San Dieguito (BGCSDTO) host a Casino Night fund-raising event at the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club’s Mission Tower on Saturday, Jan. 27. The evening includes Las Vegas-style gaming, a hosted bar, dinner and live entertainment. For more information, call (858) 720-2188 or visit www.bgcsdto.org\/casino.htm.
The Helicopter Ball Drop, celebrating its third year with the tournament, is a unique fund-raiser to benefit the San Diego Regional Fire and Rescue Helicopter Program. Golf balls are sold throughout the week, and on Saturday, Jan. 27 at a mock green near the fourth hole of the North Course, thousands of numbered golf balls are dropped from Fire-Rescue Copter 1. The ball that goes in the hole, or comes closest to the pin, wins the grand prize. Each ball, however, is a chance to win a prize.
