Put Justin's Headcover on Your Driver
Daphne's Headcovers, the original headcover company, has announced they will join PGA professional Justin Leonard in support of the ASPCA by donating a portion of proceeds from the sales of their Yellow Lab headcover, which has been a fixture in Justin's bag for the past 8 years.
Daphne's headcovers are universally known and are a standard in many PGA Tour players' bags -- a great accessory for any level player.
The headcovers are available to purchase online. Details can be found at www.headcovershop.com

"Every child at the hospital is fighting a battle that no child should have to face."
Being a long time Justin Leonard fan, I am so happy to see him playing well this year. More importantly, I was so happy to see Justin visit the children of St. Jude prior to winning the Stanford St. Jude Championship. St. Jude Hospital provides care to children with cancer regardless of their ability to pay. As a doctor at St. Jude, I know how much the kids appreciate it when any stars come to stop by and provide them with joy. Every child at the hospital is fighting a battle that no child should have to face. Every parent is fighting a nightmare that no parent wants to imagine. Justin Leonard did come by and play and eat with the kids. It means so much to our children that he stopped by and I am so glad that he went on to win the tournament later in the week. Congrats Justin. Jeffrey
Did you know ... St. Jude is the only pediatric cancer research center where families never pay for treatment not covered by insurance.
