Hunter Mahan was scheduled to play this week’s Quicken Loans National. He returned home, instead, to be with his family during a difficult time. His sister-in-law, Katie Enloe, was recently sent home from the hospital to spend her final days alongside friends and family. She has been fighting acute myeloid leukemia since January. PGA TOUR players are showing their support by donning orange ribbons at the Quicken Loans National. The Instagram feed @katiestrongtx has provided updates on Katie since her diagnosis. A post from earlier this week reads: “It is time for our warrior Katie to rest easy and spend time with family. On Friday, her 3 beloved doctors that have cared for her throughout this process, all together recommended that Katie return home to Dallas. Her mind, body, & spirit have fought long & hard, & these doctors have provided their best possible treatment plans…. but this leukemia continues to come back bigger & stronger. Katie will now spend her last days at home, with her girls, her husband, & her family by her side.â€� Katie Enloe is married to two-time Web.com Tour winner Jason Enloe, who now serves as the head men’s golf coach at SMU. The couple has two young daughters. Katie is the sister of Mahan’s wife, Kandi. Katie Enloe’s YouCaring page can be viewed here. “We’re a tight family,â€� Mahan said in a GolfChannel.com article from February, “and you just never know in life. This is what family is for, to support each other.â€� Acute myeloid leukemia is the same cancer that TOUR player Jarrod Lyle is fighting for the third time.

On Tuesday, February 8th, the PGA TOUR Wives Association held its largest fundraiser – the PGA TOUR Wives Golf Classic at the WM Phoenix Open in Scottsdale, Arizona. This was the 19th playing of the bi-annual event that featured a Superhero’s and Villains theme and offered the unique chance to see spouses/significant others of PGA TOUR Players tee it up while their husbands caddied alongside them. This 9-hole team scramble was as competitive as ever with the top three teams separated by just two strokes. Ultimately, the team of Martina Sabbatini (Rory), Alicia Malnati (Peter), and Samantha Marzke (Denny McCarthy) finished in 1st place with a score of 8-under on a day filled with great shots and plenty of laughs all around. The day would not have been possible without tremendous support from the Thunderbirds and TPC Scottsdale. Proud supporters of the event include: Nuna Baby Essentials, Lerner & Rowe Injury Attorneys, FineMark Bank, TRUE Linkswear, The Long Drink, Lily Pulitzer, Oakley, Tequila Corcel, G/FORE, International Golf Logistics (IGL), and many more. The funds raised during the event will go to support over a dozen children’s-based charities across the PGA TOUR calendar over the next two seasons.
