White Plains, NY – On August 29, 2022, Anglebrook Golf Club will be the site of the 2nd Annual Golf4TheV Golf Classic with dinner immediately following, benefitting the Stuart Scott Memorial Cancer Research Fund of the V Foundation for Cancer Research. This year’s event will honor highly respected businessman and public and non-profit board member Herman Bulls.
The Golf Classic will be held at Anglebrook Golf Club in Lincolndale, NY. Anglebrook GC was the final golf course design in the storied career of Robert Trent Jones, Sr. and has been recognized by Golf Digest as one of the top courses in New York.
The course and clubhouse are a beautiful setting for this event. Participants will enjoy a goody bag, breakfast, lunch, cocktails and dinner. A silent auction and short program presenting our honoree will complete the day.
“I’m humbled to be this year’s honoree. Like so many others, my life has been adversely affected by the cancer diagnosis in a loved one. Participating in an event that raises a significant amount of funding that goes directly to cancer research and in particular research that studies the biological basis of cancer disparities experienced by patients of minority populations is very gratifying,” said honoree Herman Bulls.
“I’m very excited coming off of the unqualified success of last year’s event. I wanted to host an event at the club I belong to and was overwhelmed by the support from individuals, businesses and the community,” said tournament host, Larry Woodard.

Since its formation in 1993, the V Foundation has awarded nearly $290 million in cancer research grants nationwide and is one of the premier supporters of cutting-edge cancer research.
About the Stuart Scott Memorial Research Fund
The Stuart Scott Memorial Research Fund was established in honor of Stuart Scott who I knew, worked with and admired, after he passed away in 2015.
The Fund supports underrepresented researchers through two types of grants.
Translational Grants fund research of the biological basis of cancer disparities experienced by patients of minority populations. The research topics include causes, aggressiveness, treatments or relapses of cancer.
The Fund also supports V Scholar scientists from minority ethnic groups underrepresented in science. This gives minority researchers important, early-career funding to establish their labs and begin their careers as cancer researchers.
