A top Italian ski resort is actually holding a charity golf tournament-- at 5,250 feet in the snow! Contestants will battle it out using brightly colored orange balls on a specially-built nine-hole course. And despite weather conditions that can cause balls to disappear in three feet deep snowdrifts, the players will still be expected to play by classic St Andrew's rules. Golfers will also have to dodge skiers and snowboarders. At least it's for a good cause -- all for charities that sponsor sports and promote sporting events.
