(HILTON HEAD ISLAND, S.C.) – The Sea Pines Resort – host venue of the RBC Heritage Presented by Boeing held on its famed Harbour Town Golf Links – announces Jeff Maggert will represent the resort during both PGA TOUR and Champions Tour events.
Long known as one of the most consistent players in golf, Maggert has earned more than $19 million over a 28-year professional career highlighted by three PGA TOUR victories. He has also represented the U.S. in the Ryder Cup three times and in the Presidents Cup once. Upon turning 50, Maggert won his Champions Tour debut in March 2014 at the Mississippi Gulf Resort Classic.
During tournament play, Maggert will support Hilton Head’s premier destination by sporting The Sea Pines Resort and Harbour Town Golf Links logos on his shirts and golf bag. He will also make select appearances on behalf of the venerable retreat as his tournament schedule permits.
“Harbour Town Golf Links is one my all-time favorite places to play so I’m excited to partner with such a fantastic course,” says Maggert. “More than just one of the world’s great golf destinations, my wife, kids and I have a home here at Sea Pines and really love how family-friendly the resort community is.”
“As one of the game’s true gentlemen, Jeff will be a wonderful ambassador for The Sea Pines Resort,” says Cary Corbitt, Vice President of Sports and Operations. “We are honored he’ll be representing us on the PGA and Champions tours.”
