Oakley hosts 5th Golf Cup to benefit Junior Golfers League of the Philippines

Now on its fifth year, Oakley was once again proud to host the Oakley Golf Cup, with participants comprised of CEOs, celebrities, seasoned players, aspiring athletes, golf enthusiasts, as well as the media who swung their golf clubs for a cause on May 29, 2017 (Monday) at the Sherwood Hills Golf Club.
