It isn’t just Tiger and Phil who are returning to action this weekend in the Champions for Charity golf match at Medalist Golf Club. After two months on the sidelines, the Goodyear Blimp GT is also back at a televised sporting event.
The blimp, which has covered more than 2,000 sports and entertainment events, will be overhead providing aerial coverage for the May 24 competition involving four sports legends: Woods and Peyton Manning vs Mickelson and Tom Brady. The event will donate $10 million to COVID-19 relief efforts and is being simulcast by Turner Sports on its TNT, TBS, truTV and HLN networks.
