The Showcase is just two years old, but it’s growing up in a hurry. The Showcase, which combined a Keith Urban concert and a few days of golf and fundraisers, generated at least $1.3 million for the Community Cancer Fund, more than doubling the $550,000 check from last year’s inaugural event. The festivities wrapped up Monday with a nine-hole exhibition at the Coeur d’Alene Resort, where quality shot-making was rivaled by one-liners fired off by PGA pros Alex Prugh, Jason Gore and Andres Gonzales and the Web.com Tour’s Joel Dahmen, and celebrities Ryan Longwell, Grant Fuhr, Neil Lomax and Detlef Schrempf/SR.
