Matrix HD Hosts 4th Annual Phoenix Forum Golf Tournament

TEMPE, Ariz. — Enjoying a windless day, a cloudless sky and perfect 86-degree temperature, over 64 players from the adult industry yesterday took part in the 4th annual Phoenix Forum charity golf tournament, presented by MatrixHD.

Set at the picturesque ASU Karsten golf course, the tournament started off with a Diabolic Dollars-sponsored putting contest and a best ball shotgun scramble, followed by 16 groups of eager golfers teeing off in the main competition.

CECASH sponsored lunch and drinks, and OC3 Networks provided a Bloody Mary bar on the 10th hole to loosen up the golfers. At the end of the day, Commerce Gate and Video Secrets sponsored a Happy Hour at the 19th Hole, followed by an awards banquet, sponsored by Matrix Content.

This year's winners were the fearsome foursome of Dan Hogue, Shahan S, Mitch Farber and Chris Gonzales, collectively shooting a formidable 55.

The runners up this year were the defending champions last year, Chuck Tsiamis, Jeff Southworth, Bjorn Skarlen and Kyle.

Individual contest winners were:

Closest to the pin — Ardy A, Bob Fegan, Christian Amico and Brad Taylor.
Longest drive — Chris Gonzales
Straightest drive — Karen Hale
Putting contest — Nick Mejillo

Proceeds from the event were donated to three charities: FSC, ASACP and Webmaster Toy Run.

Tournament sponsors included Matrix HD, CE Cash, NetBilling, Matrix COntent, Playboy Golf, Yappo Dollars, Video Secrets, Commerce Gate, Mansion Productions, Silvercash, Smashbucks, CCBill, Epoch, Diabolic Dollars, OC3 Networks, Encoding.tv, AVN Online, Fubar Times and XBIZ.

The organizers expressed special thanks to Sherrie Dosen and the CCBill staff, ASU Karsten Golf Course, Stephanie Stone and Shelly Riley, and all who supported, played, donated to or sponsored the event.
