Winning Tour Professional Cheyenne Woods Excited to Shine a Spotlight on How Pro Golf’s Biggest Stars are Giving Back to Kids and Communities in Need
ORLANDO, Fla. – Cheyenne Woods, a longtime touring golf professional and TV personality, today was announced as the host of Tee to Dream, a new original series currently in production and streaming Tuesday, Feb. 11, exclusively on GolfPass, the premier golf membership program.
Tee to Dream will shine a spotlight on inspiring stories of some of the biggest names in professional golf who are using their charitable platforms to uplift underprivileged young people and transform communities through the power of giving. With player assistance provided by the PGA TOUR, the series will follow players on and off the golf course to showcase how they are using their passions to create positive change.
The series will premiere with two episodes available:
NOTAH BEGAY III: Cheyenne Woods travels to the heart of New Mexico to visit with former PGA Tour pro, U.S. Presidents Cup team member and NBC Sports golf analyst Notah Begay to learn more about his NB3 Foundation and how it is changing the lives of Native American children by providing opportunities to live healthy, active and purpose-drive lives.

Woods teed it up for the first time at the age of 5, becoming an accomplished junior player and two-time All-American at Wake Forest University. She made her professional debut in 2012 and after 10 years as a touring professional, tried her hand at television, gaining experience as a reporter for both GOLF Channel and NBC Sports.
