Jason Terry To Host Golf Classic




Just weeks before hitting the court for the Dallas Mavericks, Jason Terry will hit the links with other local celebrities as he hosts a Celebrity Golf Classic at TPC Four Seasons. This is the first time Terry will host his Mavericks teammates and other professional athletes in this event benefiting children through Big Brothers Big Sisters and the Jason Terry Foundation. Sports celebrities and athletes will pair with participants for 18-holes of golf at the TPC Four Seasons Las Colinas on September 15.

"I believe it’s important to utilize our gifts as professional athletes, and all that goes along with that, to provide children opportunities they may not otherwise have,” said Dallas Mavericks guard Jason Terry. “If hosting teammates and other athletes in the Dallas area for golf will help change the lives of children involved with Big Brothers Big Sisters and The Jason Terry Foundation, I say tee-it-up.”

Celebrities already confirmed for the event include Jason Terry, Jerry Stackhouse, Gary Payton, Kurt Thomas, Rocket Ismail, Corey Dillon, Desmond Howard, Nick Van Exel, Michael Irvin, DeSagana Diop, Fred Brown, Spud Webb, Kenyon Martin, Raja Bell, Rashard Lewis, Antoine Walker and many more.

The redesigned TPC Four Seasons course in Las Colinas will feature caddies and an exclusive tournament format limited to only 18 teams. Jason Terry’s celebrity friends will be paired with each foursome participating. For more information about the golf tournament or the “Party Under the Stars” contact Skyler Harper at 817.905.GOLF.
