Justin Timberlake will become only the 14th celebrity to host an official
tournament for the Professional Golf Association.
The avid golfer will play in a celebrity pro-am event in Las Vegas,
which will benefit a children's hospital charity, next year (Oct08).
He joins the likes of Bob Hope, Frank Sinatra and Sammy Davis Jr., who
have hosted PGA tournaments in the past.
Timberlake's challenge will be named the Justin Timberlake Shriners
Hospitals For Children Open.
As part of his involvement, the pop star will play in the celebrity
pro-am segment of the event, and host a concert during tournament week.
He says, "I couldn't be more excited... Raising money to better
children's lives while playing golf? I can't think of a better way to pass
the time."
