Phil to the "rescue"

We as fans do not always hear about the "good" deeds that the professional golfers do for those in our community.

Here's one that can make us proud of those "guys" we support in the golf world.

Holly Dobler, the youngest of six children of Conrad Dobler, who played for ten years as an offensive lineman in the NFL, graduated from Miami University with honors on May 9, 2009.
Conrad Dobler is disabled as a a result of various injuries and surgeries due the years he played football, obviously resulting in hard financial times for his family.

Phil Michelson, after watching an HBO "Real Sports" segment chronicling the Dobler's financial struggles and the lack of pension benefits for former NFL players, agreed to pay for Holli's college education. Phil Michelson meet the Dobler family for the first time at the 2007 Memorial Tournament.

Holli has made the most of this generous gift; she double-majored in Spanish and English and graduated with a 3.9 GPA. Holli plans to be a teacher!

Thanks Phil......
