Four-time Emmy award-winning actor and 10-time Grammy Award-winning musician Justin Timberlake will tee up in special competitions this month at the 2019 Bass Pro Shops Legends of Golf at Big Cedar Lodge, which is emerging as America’s next great golf destination in Missouri’s Ozark Mountains. Proceeds from the event will be used to honor our military and veterans.
Timberlake, the beloved Tennessee native – named twice by TIME Magazine as one the 100 most influential people in the world – has sold more than 32 million albums and 56 million singles in his solo career alone, making him one of the most popular artists on the planet.
An avid golfer and sports fanatic, Timberlake will compete in the inaugural Legends Competition on Saturday, April 27th, and the third annual Celebrity Legends Shootout on Sunday, April 28th, joining a field that includes actor, producer and businessman Mark Wahlberg; singer-songwriter and actor Kid Rock; and viral internet sensation, Dude Perfect’s Tyler Toney, alongside golf legends including Jack Nicklaus, Gary Player, Lee Trevino and Ben Crenshaw.
“Bass Pro Shops Legends of Golf is all about having a good time and showcasing the natural beauty of the Ozarks to golf fans from around the world,” said noted conservationist and Bass Pro Shops founder Johnny Morris, who has been developing a series of remarkable nature-based golf courses in his native Ozarks to help connect more people to the outdoors. “We’re fired up to welcome Justin to Big Cedar Lodge to provide him and our fans with an experience unlike any other. This year’s event will be bigger than ever, and we couldn’t be more excited to have Justin joining us for all the fun.”
