Welcome toRolf Benirschke
Legacy Golf Invitational
Our Goal
The goal of the Rolf Benirschke Legacy Golf Invitational is to create a unique tournament that allows participants to play competitive golf while creating an atmosphere where genuine relationships based on trust and respect can be developed. We all share a love for golf, wish to meet kind, like-minded people who care about our community and, together, make a difference for organizations and those they serve.
Over 25 years The Legacy Family has contributed more than $10.6 million dollars to many worthy beneficiaries in San Diego. The Legacy looks forward to continuing its support for those deserving for years to come.
