The Rudin family is pleased to present this years Lew Rudin Charity Golf Classic in support of The First Tee of Metropolitan New York. This golf tournament combines several of Lew's passions - his love for his friends, love of golf, love of Deepdale and love for The First Tee.

This Year's Event

Welcome to the 16th annual Lew Rudin Charity Golf Classic. We are honored and proud that you will join us at this commerative event, remembering Lew and his most cherished sport.

We thank you for your generous support of The First Tee of Metropolitan New York, an organization “in swing” with Lew’s hopes for a facility fostering the growth of young players both on and off the golf course.

The money raised will once again be used to create a scholarship in Lew’s name for a qualified First Tee participant to attend his alma mater, New York University. A special thank you to NYU President John Sexton and Debra LaMorte, Senior Vice President of Development, for their help in facilitating this goal.
