Samuel L. Jackson

The Seventh Annual George Lopez Celebrity Golf Classic & Mercedes-Benz Dealer Championship was a day of golfing on the green for a very, very good cause.

Hosted by George Lopez, the tournament format is “Two Man Modified Best Ball” of five-somes with full handicap to benefit the former talk show host’s Lopez Foundation. The charity’s mission is to create positive, permanent change for underprivileged children, adults and military families confronting challenges in education and health, as well as increasing community awareness about kidney disease and organ donation.
