“Mike and Stephen are two of Canada’s greatest ambassadors for the game and I can’t think of a better way to tee off the golf season than by confirming they will once again be with us this summer at the 13th edition of the Rogers Charity Classic,” said Sean Van Kesteren, executive director, Rogers Charity Classic. “Canadian golf fans continue to follow both of them each week on the PGA TOUR Champions. They are both playing some great golf, and I know will once again put on a show for our spectators, while helping us once again achieve our greater mission of raising significant money for youth-based charities throughout Alberta.”
