Wyndham Clark, who's in fifth place on the BMW Championship leaderboard, has taken a philanthropic initiative amid the event. He urged the fans to wear pink on Sunday for the final round of the event to honor cancer patients.

Clark uploaded a video on his official X page and noted how his mother died due to breast cancer when he was 19 years old. So, to honor her memory and help other people facing the disease, he opened the PLAY BIG Foundation. He further said that he will donate $50,000 to local Colorado Charities and cancer charities through his charitable foundation. He also urged the people to donate as much as they could and wear pink on Sunday at the BMW Championship.

“🎀 PINK SUNDAY 🎀 The outpouring of love and support has been amazing this week. In celebration of what has been a great week I am gonna donate $50,000 to local Colorado Charities and Cancer Charities through my PLAY BIG Foundation. I encourage all those who also would like to donate, to do so through the link in my bio. Hope to see everybody in Pink tomorrow! #PLAYBIG,” Wyndham Clark said.

Clark has another philanthropic initiative called the Wyndham Clark Golf for a Cure Foundation. This charitable trust also helps cancer patients and raises funds by organizing golf tournaments and other fundraising ventures. The golfer further donates to other organizations like First Tee and the American Red Cross.

Wyndham Clark is playing well at the BMW Championship and currently stands with a score of 7-under, five shots behind Keegan Bradley.
