WARREN, PA — The Vice President Contests/Outfits, Matt Davis has announced all green hats have signed to play golf at the 2006 Carl Spackler Open Championship.

Jon Munkgard was the 3rd Carl Spackler and follows the signings of Tom McCauley (2002), Mike Trojanowski (2001), Mike Herron (2005), and Mike Watkeys (2004). All players have worn the Carl Spackler Outfit.

Jon returns for his 4th major and 4th consecutive sponsorship from Captain Morgan. He discarded all reminders of 2003 debacle that dressed him up as Carl Spackler. Jon plans to sizzle in the middle of Round 1 and throughout Round 2.

Munksgard was given the Carl Spackler Outfit award in 2003 after failing to complete the tournament due to lack of sight. He became the first player to withdraw from an Open due to a lack of one of the seven human senses. Jon lost his sight after drinking an entire bottle of Captains Morgan and racking up 83 strokes inside the first 17 holes of Round 3.

"This is my chance to show everyone my talents," says Munkgard. "There is no other place that I would like to be in June."

Munksgard signs as the 41st player. Round 1 play for the major championship begins in 4 months.
