Cresa, one of North America's leading tenant representation firm, had renewed its sponsorship of PGA Tour professional Brendan Steele and LPGA Hall of Fame golfer Amy Alcott. In addition, the firm is now a sponsor of legendary golfer Fred Funk, who currently plays on both the PGA Tour and the Champions Tour.
CEO Jim Leslie said, "Sponsoring Brendan, Fred, and Amy is a natural fit for Cresa. Just like us, they are specialists, and they are successful at the highest level. They have skills that set them apart, just as Cresa does. We're excited to be their sponsors."
Steele won the 2010 Nationwide Tour Championship in a playoff and joined the PGA Tour in 2011. Funk, a longtime fan favorite, has eight PGA Tour victories, including three Champions Tour major championships - the 2008 & 2010 JELD-WEN Tradition and the 2009 U.S. Senior Open. Alcott is a celebrated and well respected champion of the game, on and off the course. She is a member of the LPGA and World Golf Halls of Fame.
Local firm, Cresa Albany, also has strong ties to the game of golf. It's managing principal, Tim Conley, is an avid golfer playing out of Wolferts Roost Country Club, Saratoga National, and PGA National in Palm Beach Gardens in the winters. To give back to the game and the community, Cresa Albany has annually been the major sponsor for the Parsons Family and Children's Services and now the Northern Rivers Family Services Golf Tournament for the past five years.
In 2012, the event raised more than $140,000 in total. Tags:
