Graeme McDowell calls Orlando, Fla., home, and the 2010 U.S. Open champion wanted to show some support for his adopted hometown in the wake of the Pulse night club shooting that left 50 dead and many more injured.

McDowell was seen on Monday at Oakmont Country Club wearing his normal Srixon hat, with the hashtag #PrayforOrlando written on the back of it in black marker.

In addition to living in the Orlando area and playing out of Lake Nona club, the Ulsterman is also a local businessman. He owns Nona Blue Tavern in town.
