Hampton Hills Golf & Country Club welcomed Hamptonites along with celebrities and professional athletes for the 9th Annual Hamptons Golf Classic, a day-long charity golf tournament, hosted by 2007 U.S. Women’s Open Champion and 16-time LPGA Winner Cristie Kerr on Monday, June 24th, 2013. The event honored mother-and-son Hamptons real estate power duo Susan and Matthew Breitenbach, and benefited The Diamonds in the Rough Foundation, which provides support to local charities and individuals.
The charity golf tournament sponsored by BMW and Hamptons Magazine brought out stars including Jets linebacker Nick Mangold, NBC anchor Jane Hanson, and designer Ian Velardi, dubbed GQ’s Best New Menswear designer in America. Two-time longest drive champion Carl Wolfer kept participants from beating his longest drive while Mathew Fraas and his team won the overall competition and took home the Hamptons Golf Classic’s coveted trophy.
The daylong event culminated with Zev Norotsky and Debra Halpert, publisher of Hamptons Magazine, presenting a check for $10,000 to Southampton Hospital’s President Steven M. Bernstein and CEO Robert S. Chaloner for their Ellen Hermanson Breast Center on behalf of The Diamonds In The Rough Foundation and Kerr’s Birdies for Breast Cancer charity.
