The Charlotte Hornets’ President Fred Whitfield hosted a fundraiser Thursday at Carmel Country Club to promote opportunities for hundreds of underserved children.
Whitfield has been giving back to the community for four decades, which continued in south Charlotte Thursday with one of the most anticipated golf tournaments of the year.
Some of the biggest names in Charlotte sports teed off for the 18th HoopTee Celebrity Golf Classic.
“It just speaks to the relationships that Fred has across -- all sports those continued relationships and one phone call,” said Dell Curry, Hornets legend.
