Contest Drawings Provide Winners with Opportunity to Play Golf with Johnny Miller or Another Touring Pro During Utah's Premier Celebrity Golfing Fundraiser at Thanksgiving Point.

SALT LAKE CITY, UT (June 28, 2007) — The Sorenson Group of Real Estate Companies, title sponsor of Sorenson Champions Challenge, today announced it will hold free drawings to give away opportunities to play golf with Johnny Miller and another to-be-announced touring pro during Utah's premier charity golf event. Now in its tenth year at Thanksgiving Point, Sorenson Champions Challenge is hosted by World Golf Hall of Fame member Johnny Miller. The challenge begins on Mon., Aug. 20, with a pro-am tournament that matches each foursome with one professional, partner, or golfing celebrity in a team scramble format. On the following day, the Sorenson Champions Challenge is played by twosomes competing in a scramble format.

The winner of the first golf-with-a-pro contest—a drawing to be held on June 30, 2007—will play in a foursome with a to-be-announced PGA Tour pro, Champions Tour pro, or LPGA Tour pro. The winner of the second drawing—to be held on Aug. 16, 2007—will golf in a foursome with Johnny Miller.
