Bob Packard Cup
November 3, 2003

Golf legend Tom Watson hosted the Bob Packard Cup, a new tournament to raise funds for ALS research at Hopkins. Watson, co-host and longtime friend Frank "Sandy" Tatum, Jr., and other organizers anticipate that the tournament will raise at least $1 million for the Center to accelerate the development of effective therapies and ultimately a cure for ALS. Watson, who began playing on the Senior Tour in 1999, has been a generous supporter of ALS research since his caddy Bruce Edwards was diagnosed with the disease in January of 2003. Visit www.packardcup.org to learn more about the event.
