UPDATE on April 27, 2023: It’s official — WTMJ fans rallied late to surpass Sports Director Greg Matzek’s $7,500 goal for ‘The Ringer’ 100-hole charity golf tournament benefitting child cancer and blood disorder research through the MACC Fund.
With Matzek reaching this goal, he will spend the next month growing out his hair after shaving his head consistently for more than a decade.
Most of his WTMJ and Good Karma Brands co-workers, as well as his wife and children, have never seen him with hair. WTMJ will document this 30-day journey so fans can get a look at his progress.
For today, Matzek is more focused on his 100 holes of golf. On the morning of April 27, 2023, he checked in from the course with ESPN Wisconsin host Gabe Neitzel and Bally Sports WI’s Stephen Watson.
The following story has been left unaltered from its original publishing.
