Lymphoma Research Foundation to Host the Third Annual South Florida Golf Invitational

Teeing up for a better tomorrow! Every five minutes, someone in the United States is diagnosed with lymphoma, and more than one million people in the country are living with, or in remission from, lymphoma/chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).

The community is invited to join the Lymphoma Research Foundation for the Third Annual South Florida Golf Invitational on Monday, May 4, 2026, as it takes a swing toward fulfilling its mission to realize the promise of science to eradicate lymphoma and serve the community touched by this disease. Supporters will put their golf skills to the test at the iconic La Gorce Country Club, one of the most exclusive private golf clubs in the United States, designed by Jack Nicklaus, while being a catalyst in finding cures. This exclusive tournament highlights the strong donor base and offers a unique, intimate experience for its 72 participants.

Registration will begin at 9 a.m. with breakfast and a driving range. The tournament will commence with a shotgun start at 12 p.m., and golfers will enjoy lunch and refreshments on the green. Following the tournament at 4:30 p.m., players will experience a networking cocktail reception and awards ceremony with hors d’oeuvres. All golfers will receive premium gift bags. Non-golfers are welcome at the cocktail reception.

Proceeds will support the Lymphoma Research Foundation’s mission by powering breakthroughs in research that cure blood cancers and directly supporting cancer patients in need. Lymphoma is the most common blood cancer in adults and the third most common cancer overall among children. The Lymphoma Research Foundation is the nation’s largest nonprofit organization devoted exclusively to funding lymphoma research and supporting the lymphoma community through evidence-based education, support services and resources.

The event is co-chaired by Leigh and Cory Olson. The 2026 Benefit Committee is Walter J. Andrews, Barbara Freundlich, Patricia Kaine and Leah and John Leonard, MD.
