2008 BMW Championship winner Camilo Villegas attempted to recreate Arnold Palmer’s historic drive from the 1960 U.S. Open at Cherry Hills Country Club’s 1st tee to kick-off the 2014 BMW Championship, using a replica Persimmon driver with a steel shaft and wood head from the same era. BMW made an additional $10,000 donation to the Evans Scholars Foundation, which grants full college scholarships to young deserving caddies of financial need. Since BMW became title sponsor in 2007, the tournament has raised more than $16 million for the Evans Scholars Foundation.
