Event Will Bring Together 26 Football Legends and 78 PGA TOUR Champions
Professionals at Old Course at Broken Sound in Boca Raton
BOCA RATON, FL, UNITED STATES, October 15, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — The James Hardie™ Pro Football Hall of Fame Invitational announced today that NFL Hall of Famers Anthony Muñoz, Demarcus Ware and Morten Andersen, will be featured at the inaugural event. The tournament will feature Pro Football Hall of Famers competing alongside PGA TOUR Champions professionals from March 31 to April 6, 2025, at the Old Course at Broken Sound in Boca Raton, Florida.
Muñoz was an offensive tackle with the Cincinnati Bengals for 13 seasons, was elected to 11 consecutive Pro Bowls and named All-Pro 11 consecutive times from 1981 through 1991. In 2022, an ESPN panel named Muñoz as the greatest offensive tackle in NFL history. Ware spent the majority of his 12 seasons in the league with the Dallas Cowboys before capping his career with the Denver Broncos. He was voted first-team All-Pro four times, second-team All-Pro three times and was selected to nine Pro Bowls. In 2016, Ware received the Darrent Williams Good Guy Award – an annual award the Denver Broncos present to a player from their team “who best exemplifies Williams’ enthusiasm, cooperation and honesty while dealing with members of the press.” Andersen, nicknamed “the Great Dane,” was a kicker in the NFL for 25 seasons – most notably with the New Orleans Saints and Atlanta Falcons – and is widely considered the most prolific scorer in league history. Andersen’s 40 field goals of 50 yards or longer were the most in NFL history at his retirement. He is one of the rare players to be named to two NFL All-Decade Teams (1980s and 1990s).
Muñoz, Ware and Andersen join NFL greats Warren Sapp, Rondé Barber, Dwight Freeney, Jimbo Covert, Andre Reed, and Calvin Johnson, who have also committed to play in the tournament. A total of 26 football legends and 78 PGA TOUR Champions professionals will come together for an exciting three-day tournament that will be televised live on the Golf Channel.
“The addition of Hall of Famers like Anthony Muñoz, Demarcus Ware and Morten Andersen to the James Hardie™ Pro Football Hall of Fame Invitational brings even more excitement and anticipation for both fans and participants alike,” said Ken Kennerly, Executive Director, James Hardie™ Pro Football Hall of Fame Invitational.
The James Hardie™ Pro Football Hall of Fame Invitational promises to be a memorable blend of football and golf, complemented by a full schedule of parties, celebratory events, and off-course happenings to ensure a fun and exciting week for everyone involved.
