Angelo Bruno and his son, Ronald, combined their business skills and connections with their love for golf in 1991 to bring a major Champions Tour event (formerly called SENIOR PGA TOUR) to the Birmingham area.  This event was to provide first-class golf entertainment while raising substantial monies for Alabama charities. The Regions Charity Classic was the first Champions Tour event for the Birmingham-Hoover metropolitan area, and as is approaching $10 million for charity as of 2008.

Bruno Event Team was awarded its first USGA contract for the 1999 U.S. Women’s Open in West Point, MS. Since then, Bruno Event Team has managed nine USGA events and has secured contracts for more over the next four years.  Besides working on USGA and Champions Tour events, Bruno Event Team has also managed events with the PGA Tour, Nationwide Tour and the LPGA. Today, no other management team in golf has as much experience in the start up and successful completion of tournaments in new markets.
