Hertford, NC, March 01, 2006 --(PR.com)-- Greens Worldwide Incorporated (GRWW OTCBB) announced today that its wholly owned subsidiary, US Pro Golf Tour, Inc. has received an application from Ed Moses, a Gold and Silver Medalist at the 2000 Olympics and has been granted a full exemption for the 2006 Tour.
