Atlanta, GA – Terance Mathis, College Football Hall of Fame Class 2023, former NFL player and current sports analyst, is proud to announce the Terance Mathis Celebrity Golf Classic to benefit the Emory ALS Center. The tournament will be held on September, 10-11 at Harrah’s Casino, Cherokee NC at the beautiful Sequoyah National Golf Club.

ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease, is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. The Emory ALS Center is a leading research institution dedicated to finding a cure for this devastating disease. Mathis is committed to supporting the center’s important work. “ALS is important to me because it could happen to me. I want my family to know that there is a cure or at least methods to slowing it down.”

The tournament will feature a variety of celebrity guests, including former NFL, NBA, MLB players, musicians, and other notable personalities. Each foursome will include one celebrity! Participants will have the opportunity to enjoy a round of golf on one of the country’s most iconic golf courses while raising funds for a worthy cause.

Sponsorship opportunities are available for businesses and individuals looking to support the cause. All proceeds from the tournament will go directly to the Emory ALS Center to fund research and support services for patients and families affected by ALS.
