hiatus golf was a partner of this year's Duvernay-Tardif Foundation tournament, not only to talk about golf accessibility and new perspectives on the game, but also for a friendly "challenge the amateur" activation.
Hosted by Kevin Raphael, the tournament brought together some 100 golfers and public personalities.
About the Foundation
In 2017, their common desire to be involved with young people led Laurent and Florence-Agathe to co-create the LDT Foundation. With the support of an experienced team, they set up innovative programs combining art and sports in a network of elementary schools across Quebec. Their goal: to transmit their passion for art and sports to students by giving them access to activities that encourage them to succeed at school and thrive personally.
