這位六次PGA巡迴賽冠軍將在度假勝地和社區計劃方面支持金沙集團
LAS VEGAS, June 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Las Vegas Sands (NYSE: LVS) today announced that six-time PGA TOUR winner Collin Morikawa is the company's newest champion ambassador, a multi-year engagement that will incorporate the world-class athlete into the company's integrated resort programs and advance the mutual goal of building strong and resilient communities with priorities on youth development and community revitalization in areas of need.
拉斯維加斯，2024年6月24日 /美通社/--紐交所(LVS)今天宣佈，六次PGA巡迴賽冠軍柯林·莫里卡瓦(Collin Morikawa)是公司最新的冠軍大使，這是一項爲期多年的合作，將把這位世界級運動員融入公司的綜合度假項目中，並促進雙方的共同目標，即在有需要的地區建立強大而有彈性的社區，重點放在青年發展和社區振興上。
Kicking off their joint work, Sands is donating $100,000 to the Maggie Hathaway Golf Course restoration project in Los Angeles. Morikawa, an LA native and honorary chairman of FORE Youth: The 2023 U.S. Open Community Legacy Campaign, has championed transformation of the golf course into a hub for junior golf development. The project aims to raise $15 million to rejuvenate the nine-hole, par-3 golf course, along with its practice facility and supporting buildings, as well as ensure long-term sustainability and youth development programming.
在合作開展的初期，金沙集團向洛杉磯的瑪吉·哈瑟韋高爾夫球場修復項目捐款10萬美元。莫里卡瓦是洛杉磯人，是2023年美國公開賽社區遺產活動的名譽主席，倡導將高爾夫球場改造成青少年高爾夫發展中心。該項目旨在籌集1500萬美元，重振這個9洞標準桿3杆高爾夫球場，以及它的練習設施、支持性建築，以及確保長期可持續發展和青年發展規劃。
Through the broader partnership, Morikawa will continue supporting Sands at golf clinics designed to promote youth development and leadership skills, as he has done at the Sands Youth Golf Clinic in Macao and for the Sands Cares Youth Empowerment Initiative in Long Island, New York, where Sands hopes to build an integrated resort if successful in obtaining a Downstate New York gaming license.
在更廣泛的合作伙伴關係中，莫里卡瓦將繼續支持金沙集團舉辦高爾夫球課程，旨在促進青年發展和領導能力，就像他在澳門的金沙青年高爾夫球診所和金沙關心青年賦權計劃中所做的那樣，而金沙集團希望在獲取紐約州下州遊戲許可證的情況下，在紐約的長島建立綜合度假勝地。
Sharing a commitment to community advancement, Sands and Morikawa also will work together on revitalization programs, like the LA golf course restoration project and Morikawa's support of the relief efforts for the deadly wildfires in Hawaii last year.
在****的承諾方面，金沙集團和莫里卡瓦還將共同致力於振興項目，例如洛杉磯高爾夫球場修復項目以及莫里卡瓦對去年夏威夷致命火災救援工作的支持。
"I've had the opportunity to work with Sands in New York and Macao, and we are very much aligned in our commitment to leverage the sport of golf to advance youth development and build leadership skills," Morikawa said. "But I'm just as excited that we share a vision for creating strong communities by addressing areas that need the infusion of resources we can bring to the table. Working together, we will create many opportunities for our joint community priorities."
"我有機會在紐約和澳門與金沙集團合作，我們非常一致地致力於利用高爾夫的優勢促進青年發展和建立領導才能，"莫里卡瓦說。"但是我同樣興奮的是，我們共同擁有一個願景，通過解決需要我們提供資源的領域，創造強大的社區。通過合作，我們將爲我們的聯合社區優先事項創造大量機會。"
A two-time major champion, six-time PGA TOUR winner, two-time Ryder Cup participant and Olympian at just 27, Morikawa has matched historical performances with one of the most genuine and relatable personalities in professional sports.
現年27歲的莫里卡瓦是兩屆大滿貫冠軍、六次PGA巡迴賽冠軍、兩屆賽德杯參賽選手和奧運選手，他的表現與職業體育界最真誠和易於親近的個性之一相得益彰。
After putting the golf world on notice in 2020, he cemented his place in the history books in 2021. With a win at the 2021 WGC-Workday Championship at The Concession, Morikawa joined Tiger Woods as the only players to have won a major and a WGC title before the age of 25. After top-10 performances at both the 2021 PGA Championship and U.S. Open, Morikawa joined the exclusive club entitled Champion Golfer of the Year with his commanding performance at the 2021 Open Championship. This performance again linked Morikawa and Woods, as they are now the only two players to have won both the PGA Championship and Open Championship before the age of 25.
在2020年向高爾夫球界發出通牒之後，莫里卡瓦在2021年鞏固了他的歷史地位。在2021年卡戴珊工作日錦標賽上的勝利後，莫里卡瓦成爲了唯一在25歲之前贏得大滿貫和世錦賽頭銜的球員，他在2021年美國PGA錦標賽和美國公開賽上均取得了前10名的成績，在2021年英國公開賽上，莫里卡瓦以統治性的表現獲得了冠軍高爾夫球手的稱號。此次表現再次將莫里卡瓦和伍茲聯繫在了一起，因爲他們現在是僅有的兩位在25歲之前贏得美國PGA錦標賽和英國公開賽的球員。
At the 2020 PGA Championship, Morikawa hit one of the most iconic shots in major championship history, en route to victory with his sensational drive at the par-4 16th hole, which set up an eagle that cemented his place as a major winner. His two-shot win at Harding Park also carried historic significance, as he joined Jack Nicklaus, Woods and Rory McIlroy as the only 23-year-olds to win the Wanamaker Trophy.
在2020年美國PGA錦標賽上，莫里卡瓦打出了大滿貫錦標賽歷史上最具標誌性的一杆，他在第16洞的標準桿4杆球場上發揮出色，創造了一個鷹洞，鞏固了他作爲大滿貫冠軍的地位。他在哈丁公園的兩杆勝利也具有歷史意義，因爲他加入了傑克·尼克勞斯、伍茲和魯迪·麥克羅伊(兜兜轉轉)等僅有的23歲獲勝者之列，贏得了瓦納克杯。
Born and raised in Los Angeles and now a resident of Las Vegas, Morikawa has excelled both on the course and in the classroom as a 2019 graduate of the prestigious Haas School of Business at University of California, Berkeley. When not competing, Morikawa devotes himself to spending time with his wife, dog and finding the best eats in town.
莫里卡瓦在洛杉磯出生長大，現在是拉斯維加斯居民，他在2019年畢業於加州大學伯克利分校哈斯商學院，既在球場上取得了成功，又在課堂上一舉成名。當他不參加比賽時，莫里卡瓦致力於和妻子和狗在一起，並尋找城市中最好的餐廳。
"Collin is an outstanding partner for us on many fronts, first and foremost because of his leadership both on and off the course," Sands Chairman and CEO Robert G. Goldstein said. "Between our mutual home of Las Vegas and shared Asia roots, we intend to create a host of opportunities to advance the priorities and causes that are equally important to us."
"在許多方面，柯林對我們來說是一個傑出的合作伙伴，首先是因爲他在和場上的領導才能。"金沙董事長兼首席執行官羅伯特·戈爾德斯坦說。"在我們的共同家鄉拉斯維加斯和亞洲根源之間，我們打算創造許多先進的機會，推進對我們同樣重要的優先事項和事業。"
