Players from 50 Charity Tournaments Can Earn the Opportunity to Play in the Hyundai Invitational National Final in Las Vegas

FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif., April 20, 2016 – Hyundai returns for its third round of the successful Hyundai Invitational golf tournament series, connecting golfers with the Hyundai brand and the 2016 Hyundai Genesis premium sedan. Fifty of the nation’s best charity golf tournaments have a Hyundai sponsorship that includes hole-in-one opportunities to win a new Hyundai Genesis, donations toward the tournament, along with numerous other prizes and giveaways.

Two winners from each of the 50 tournaments (either determined by low score or auction) will be invited to compete at the Hyundai Invitational National Final in Las Vegas at the Cascata Golf Club, Oct. 26-28. At the National Final, the player with the low-net score from each region will receive an all-expenses paid trip to the Hyundai-sponsored PGA TOUR tournament held at Riviera Country Club. The Hyundai Invitational got started earlier this week on April 18 at Craig Miller’s Swing for Hope at Las Colinas Country Club in Dallas.

“The game of golf has always played an important role in raising money for charities, and the Hyundai Invitational not only does that, but rewards players with a chance at an incredible experience in Vegas, with the potential to move on to Los Angeles and Riviera,” said David Feherty, host of the Feherty show, current NBC golf analyst and Hyundai’s golf ambassador, who will be onsite at the National Final interacting with the participants. “I’m looking forward to meeting the 100 winners at the Hyundai Invitational National Final and giving them a few tips that might help their games, without causing them any physical injury.”

“During the past two years of this program we’ve made great relationships with numerous charities across the country and look forward to helping them raise more money for their worthy causes,” said Trea Reedy, senior group manager, Experiential Marketing, Hyundai Motor America. “The Hyundai Invitational has been successful at engaging golf fans in their local communities and building our overall golf platform which now includes title sponsorship of one of the premier stops on the PGA TOUR.”
