Bridgestone Golf and The Hackers Paradise Invite Golf Fans To Choose Winner, Win Prizes In "Forsgate Battle Of The Sexes" Contest
Paula Creamer Takes on Gary McCord in "Battle of the Sexes," Hosted by David Feherty
COVINGTON, GA — When LPGA Star and Bridgestone Tour Pro
Paula Creamer takes on CBS Golf Commentator Gary McCord in Golf's "Battle
of the Sexes" on Oct. 7, 2012, at Forsgate Country Club in Monroe Township, New
Jersey, golf fans can win Bridgestone products by choosing the event's winner. With
irreverent Golf Channel star (and Bridgestone endorser)
David Feherty providing live color and analysis of the head-to-head, 9-hole
stroke play competition, golf fans can log on to The Hackers Paradise (www.thehackersparadise.com), have fun and load up with Bridgestone
balls and caps!
Contestants will be asked to choose the winner and predict that player's 9-hole
aggregate score. Contestants who choose correctly will be entered into a drawing
for a Bridgestone prize pack, featuring Bridgestone golf balls of their choice and
Bridgestone branded headwear.
The "Forsgate Battle of the Sexes" is the first competition of its kind, requiring
both Creamer and McCord to play head-to-head from the same set of tees for a tournament
purse of $10,000. Regardless, of who comes out on top, the true winner will be the
charity beneficiaries of The Forsgate Foundation, a non-profit organization that
has donated over $400,000 to worthwhile organizations since its inception in 2003.
Those interested in tracking their picks' play, will be able to follow the action
via live scoring at www.forsgatecc.com
and on Twitter by following @ForsgateCC.
