Money raised supports research conducted by the National Center for Responsible Gaming (NCRG). Over its history, the event has raised more than $1.45 million for the NCRG.

“The NCRG is immensely grateful to AGEM, AGA and JCM Global for their continuing support of research that will lead to effective prevention and treatment of gambling disorder,” said Christine Reilly, NCRG Senior Research Director. “We salute all of the companies and individuals that sponsored the 2015 golf classic.”

Returning as title sponsors were the Association of Gaming Equipment Manufacturers (AGEM) and the American Gaming Association (AGA). Other Sponsors included Ainsworth, Aristocrat, Caesars Entertainment, Casino Enterprise Management Magazine, CPI, GLI, Global Gaming Expo, Hikam America, Konami, JCM Global, the National Indian Gaming Association, Patriot Gaming, Scientific Games, VSR Industries and WaffleTechnology.
