  • Luke Wilson and Tim Wakefield to Host Farmington Bank Celebrity Mini Golf Tournament at the Travelers Championship
    CONTACT: Tara Gerber Travelers Championship 860.502.6815 [email protected] LUKE WILSON AND TIM WAKEFIELD TO HOST FARMINGTON BANK CELEBRITY MINI GOLF TOURNAMENT AT THE TRAVELERS CHAMPIONSHIP HARTFORD, Conn., August 2, 2016 – The Travelers Championship today announced that actor Luke Wilson and former Red Sox pitcher Tim Wakefield will host the Farmington Bank Celebrity Mini Golf Tournament on Wednesday, August 3 in the Farmington Bank Kids Zone at TPC River Highlands. Two waves of three-player teams begin with shotgun starts at 9:30 and 10:30 a.m. Teams will compete for $2,500 to donate to a charity of their choice. Many holes feature special twists from tournament partners such as LEGO® and The Hole in the Wall Gang Camp, making it more challenging for players and exciting for fans, who can view the action from sideline bleachers and a video wall. Renee DiNino from iHeartMedia Communities will emcee for the fourth year. In addition to Wilson and Wakefield, other celebrities scheduled to participate include actor Dane DeHaan, WWE legend Bob Backlund, local TV and radio personalities and UConn coaches. “We are grateful that all of the celebrities involved have taken time to participate in this fan-favorite competition,” said Travelers Championship Tournament Director Nathan Grube. “This competition can mean big money for a charity and gives fans a unique opportunity to watch their favorite local celebrities up close as they go head-to-head in a fun game of mini golf.” Luke Wilson stars in the Showtime series “Roadies” and has appeared in hit movies such as “Old School,” “The Royal Tenenbaums” and “Legally Blonde.” A longtime friend of The Hole in the Wall Gang Camp, Wilson also will be playing in the Travelers Celebrity Pro-Am.
