Historic wildfires have devastated California. Over 3,000 miles away, in South Florida, LPGA players are trying to add a little hope, inspiration and financial support to those bravely battling the fires and dealing with the aftermath.
Tiffany Joh sent out the below tweet asking her fellow LPGA pros to help however they could. And some playing in this week’s CME Group Tour Championship, and even those who aren’t, have accepted the challenge.
Hey @LPGA buds, I’m sure a lot of you have been following the CA fires. The parents of one of our PTs, Jenae, were one of the families that lost everything in the Camp Fire. If you can please donate your Starbucks money and/or share this link! https://t.co/MlHrkHohHp

I’ll donate $20 for every birdie I make this week. Any other @LPGA buds want to pledge to do the same? https://t.co/2j66qK8PDJ

I will also donate $20 for every birdie @TheJanePark makes this week!! I’d donate for my birdies - but. . . You know that wouldn’t help https://t.co/U0KR3KTghx
