I just wanted to thank the tournament committee for the Greg Grater tribute prior to the start of the tournament finals. I know I was wiping away a tear or two along with many others. Greg will be greatly missed and the testament to his work was the ability of the tournament to carry on without flaw. He worked hard at seeing to it that others did their job. Of all of the events of the weekend, the retirement of the shoes was the most special for me. I’ll miss seeing Greg, but I know in my heart I’ll see him again.
Very moving!!
Can anyone tell me the name of the song used in the tribute?
Artist: Right Said Fred
Song: Stand up for the champion
