The Story
How It Began
The ALS 100 was founded by friends Alex Litt and Cory Sullivan, whose families were both profoundly affected by ALS. The two first met in their early 20s living in New York City and bonded, among other things, over their love of golf. At the same time, Cory had just lost his father to ALS. Eventually, both moved away and lost touch… nearly 10 years later, fate brought them together in a chance encounter at Big Cedar Lodge in the middle of the Ozarks in July 2023. Alex’s father had recently been diagnosed with ALS and the two reconnected over their shared journey. Shortly thereafter, they created a challenge that has transformed their personal loss into movement using the wonderful game of golf to raise funds and awareness in the fight to cure ALS.
