The presentation, titled “A Nasty Bit of Rough,” covered Mr. Feherty’s life experience growing up in Northern Ireland and Belfast during times of unrest. He discussed being a caddy for his father and then beginning his own career in golf.

Mr. Feherty also described his challenges with alcohol and painkiller addiction as well as recovering from a biking accident where he was hit by a moving vehicle. Throughout the presentation, Mr. Feherty maintained his humor and wit that makes him so popular on the air.

A large portion of Mr. Feherty’s presentation also covered his relationship with Tiger Woods and the impressive games he has played throughout his career. Finally, Mr. Feherty ended with a resounding anecdote about his devotion to the United States service men and women. His charity organization, Feherty’s Troops First Foundation for combat-injured men and women are “the single most fulfilling thing that I get to do outside of my family life,” he said.

One organization, “Proper Exit,” takes wounded warriors back to the spot where they were injured to give them closure.
