Cancer Survivor Plays 75 Golf Holes | Glasgow News
from Glasgow News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
A cancer survivor and firefighter, Robert Downs, stunned everyone by playing 75 holes of golf in 24 hours—starting at 4:30 AM—to raise funds for Prostate Cancer UK. Just three months prior, he’d undergone surgery for prostate cancer, but caught early, he’s now cancer-free and celebrating his 47th birthday. With his 75-year-old uncle and 12 friends cheering him on across two courses, he smashed his $2,500 goal, raising over $8,000. His golfing passion, combined with his fight against cancer, turned into a powerful fundraiser and awareness campaign. Now cleared to return to work at Glasgow Airport, Robert’s story is proof that resilience, humor, and grit can turn tragedy into triumph—and inspire others to push their limits for a cause.
