Some of the most popular Strikeforce fighters will be playing in a charity golf tournament this Monday at the San Jose Country Club in San Jose. Fans can get involved and get to play golf with the fighters as well as have dinner with them.
All of the proceeds from the event will go to a organization called Turning Wheels for Kids. Fighters that are scheduled to appear include Josh “The Punk” Thomson, Luke Rockhold, Herschel Walker, Dan Henderson, Frank Shamrock, and Scott Smith.
Unfortunately, Alistair Overeem and Fedor Emelianenko are not scheduled to appear. How cool would it be to play golf with one of those two heavyweight fighters?
