Thank you Adam
☮ & love Tommy!

"Emperor Tommy Naccarato has lost his home to the Los Angeles wildfires. Pretty tough at the best of times; worse still given he's in recovery after suffering a stroke.

Tommy is an icon in the golf architecture community, and has been a valued friend to hundreds of us for many years. We owe him a great deal. Now it's time to help him! Please give what you can."
Thinking of Bob, Rihc, Bill, George, Neil, Dr. Childs, & Tiger.

Someone said he's at his mom's, so at least there's that. And great job Adam and everyone for donating, it will make a difference!

It's quite late in the evening here, and I shan't be up that much longer, but before I hit the hay, I just wanted to say a huge THANK YOU to the entire golf architecture community for stepping up to the plate today. I have messaged with Tommy extensively, and I know that he is blown away by the love today has shown for him.


I don't know where the fundraising will finish, though I think it has a way to go -- we have had some attention from a number of pretty high profile people, and their followers, even though they don't know Tommy personally, are coming to the party as well -- the list of contributors includes a lot of names I know, and a lot I don't. I am extremely grateful to them all.


Today has shown the golf architecture community at its best.
