SUPPORT MICHAEL
“To pursue a career in professional golf I need to gain the resources to play on a professional tour and test my skills week in and week out. The costs of playing professional golf are very high and unfortunately, I do not have the personal funds to cover all of the expenses on my own.
I am seeking financial support from generous sponsors and investors that love golf, genuinely believe in me, and are willing to help get my career started.”
All financial support goes directly towards expenses for entry fees, travel, lodging, instruction, equipment, and any other costs incurred while working and living as a professional golfer. The estimated total cost is $51,065 for the year 2023.
