A big thank you to Hollywood Casino at Greektown for their generous support of THE JOHN SHIPPEN. One of the biggest barriers in golf is the cost of travel, and by providing housing for our players during the tournament, they’re helping us break down those barriers and create wider access to the game. #THEJOHNSHIPPEN #HollywoodCasinoatGreektown #PGA #BlackGolf #BlackExcellence Hollywood Casino at Greektown
