In a time when it seems that nobody can get enough, it is refreshing to see Ryan Sheckler giving to those in need in a big way. This is the 10th year that Ryan held his golf tournament to raise money to help kids and injured action sports athletes through the Sheckler Foundation.

Pro skateboarders, surfers, basketball players, baseball players, football players, celebrities, golfers and more than 500 individuals came together in Dana Point at Monarch Beach Resort & Golf Links for Ryan Sheckler’s 10th Annual Celebrity Golf Tournament, presented by Oakley. Mikey Taylor, Davis Torgerson, Leonardo Fioravanti, Evan Geiselman and other notables such as Machine Gun Kelly (MGK), Avenged Sevenfold and professional athletes such as three-time NBA All-Star Klay Thompson and professional football players Reggie Bush and Ryan Mathews golfed and raised $300,000 to benefit the Sheckler Foundation’s “Be the Change” initiative. Reggie Bush and his foursome took home third place. Second place went to Matt Sanders of Avenged Sevenfold’s foursome. Former Major League basebabll pitcher Clay Hensley and his team took home first. Sponsor Lume Cube was awarded Best Hole Activation with a nautical-themed slingshot game, and Sara Peterson from Zebra House Coffee won $3,730 from the Find Your Grind 200-foot helicopter ball drop and donated all of her winnings back to the foundation. All those who participated left with big smiles and that warm and fuzzy feeling knowing they’ve helped a great cause. Kudos to Ryan Sheckler and his foundation for all that they do. We’ll see ya again next year!
