TORONTO – (November 25, 2024) – RSM Canada (“RSM”) - a leading global provider of assurance, tax and consulting services – is pleased to announce that Doug Ghim has won US$300,000 through RSM’s Birdies Fore Love on-course competition for recording the most birdies (or better) over the eight events of the 2024 FedExCup Fall. As part of the program, Ghim will choose a children- and/or family-focused charitable organization or organizations to donate money to that is focused on building tomorrow’s middle market leaders.

RSM’s Birdies Fore Love also awarded US$50,000 to Nicolas (Nico) Echavarria for carding the most birdies or better during The RSM Classic. Echavarria joins other weekly winners David Lipsky, Beau Hossler, Lee Hodges, Alejandro Tosti, Max Greyserman, Austin Eckroat and Ryan Moore who won the weekly competition during the FedExCup Fall tournaments. The 2024 program concluded at The RSM Classic where birdies counted for double.

“I’m pleased to congratulate Doug Ghim on winning RSM’s Birdies Fore Love, as well as the eight other weekly winners,” said Andy Bosman, chief marketing officer with RSM US LLP. “Thank you to the PGA TOUR players for their hard work and dedication, to all of RSM’s people and clients for their stewardship and to the Davis Love Foundation for their continued collaboration on programs like this which demonstrate our commitment to making an impact beyond measure.”

Since the competition started in 2018, RSM’s Birdies Fore Love has donated US$5,975,000 to players’ charities, supporting more than 90 different organizations. Four players have started their own foundations as a direct result of RSM’s Birdies Fore Love funds. Past winners and their charities of choice and the stories of the impact these donations have made can be viewed on the PGA TOUR’s RSM's Birdies Fore Love website.

In alignment with the RSM US Foundation, winning players designate funds to charitable organizations dedicated to building tomorrow’s middle-market leaders through programs that support education, as well as organizations committed to improving the lives of youth through a focus on hunger, housing and health.

“We’re proud of another great year of giving back to the community with RSM and The RSM Classic at Sea Island,” said Davis Love III, PGA TOUR professional, Team RSM member and The RSM Classic Tournament Host. “I want to extend congratulations to the RSM’s Birdies Fore Love winners, who will all be able to make an impact long after this week.”
