Wishbone Brawl VII: Bill Murray

With Wishbone Brawl VII in the books, we’re looking back on the annual event with a highlight reel of the participants. Next up, Bill Murray. The iconic actor and entertainer has been supporting John Ashworth’s efforts to revitalize a community asset for over a decade, and on Nov. 23, Murray showed up and did what Murray does best: make people laugh. He also gave hugs, posed for selfies and signed countless autographs. Murray partnered with Leta Lindley, the reigning U.S. Senior Women’s Open Champion, and the twosome came up a little short on the 4,500-yard par-65 municipal where locals can pay $35 to walk on weekends. All proceeds of the Wishbone Brawl go to North County Junior Golf and Goat’s Junior Caddie & Leadership Academy. To get involved, make a donation or bid on almost 100 items/offers, the online auction at NCJGA.com is open until Dec. 11. As Murray says: “If it weren’t for John Ashworth, you could have an indoor soccer stadium right here!”🙏
