“Duchenne is a devastating disease that cuts short the lives of thousands worldwide,” said Ryan Getzlaf. “Paige and I joined the cause to help find a cure 11 years ago, but we never imagined what this tournament could become. CureDuchenne has made a tremendous impact, investing into promising science that moves the needle closer and closer to a cure every day, and I’m proud of what we’ve accomplished together over the past decade.”

NHL All-Star and 2007 Stanley Cup Champion Ryan Getzlaf played a remarkable 17-year career for the Anaheim Ducks, holding the record as the franchise’s all-time leading scorer and serving as team captain for the last 11 years. Over the past 10 years, Ryan and his wife Paige have raised more than $4.6 million at the Getzlaf Golf Shootout to fund early-stage research and bring new therapies for Duchenne muscular dystrophy.

Duchenne muscular dystrophy, the most common and severe form of muscular dystrophy, is a fatal genetic disease affecting roughly 1 in 5,000 male births. Individuals with Duchenne are typically diagnosed as toddlers, lose the ability to walk in their early-teens and often succumb to the disease in their mid-20s. Since CureDuchenne was created in 2003, the organization has raised over $50 million for research and to develop impactful programs that help families living with Duchenne, and has funded 16 research projects that have advanced to human clinical trials.

“We are immensely grateful to the Getzlafs for their ongoing commitment to CureDuchenne for more than a decade. Funds raised at the Getzlaf Golf Shootout have been vital in our quest to find a cure for Duchenne,” said Debra Miller, founder and CEO of CureDuchenne. “We will not rest until there is a cure, and every dollar raised and invested into early-stage science moves us one step closer.”
