ORLANDO, FL. --- PING Golf and Celebration Golf Management, Inc. recently pooled resources to help two war-injured veterans in the Fairways for Warriors program, a nationwide initiative that helps injured soldiers cope with their handicaps by teaching them to play golf.
PING presented full sets of PING golf clubs, and Celebration Golf is providing a series of 10 golf clinics for both veterans.
Gene Garrote, president of Celebration Golf Management (CGM) said both soldiers were severely injured in Iraq.
“Jorge Zapata was a Marine combat engineer who neutralized more than 80 IEDs before he was injured,” Garrote said.
“B.J. Jackson lost both legs below his knees when a Humvee he was driving was hit buy a rocket-propelled grenade. He had to be extracted from the burning vehicle,” Garrote explained.
Kenny Nairn, Scottish PGA Golf Professional and Executive Vice President of Golf at Celebration Golf Management, said the series of golf clinics for soldiers started recently at all six CGM clubs in Florida.
