Not bad for a guy who had very humble beginning as a club pro in Minnesota. In addition to winning the (British) Open Championship in 1996, he also won a PGA Tour money title and was named PGA Tour Player of the Year that same year. He has played on three U.S. Ryder Cup teams, captained another and at one time he stood No. 1 in the world rankings. And, much to his own surprise when it happened, he’s now a major championship winner on the Champions Tour. Lehman won the 71st Senior PGA Championship, the oldest title in senior golf, when it was played this year at the Colorado Golf Club in Parker, and he did it by taking the first hole of a three-way playoff that included Fred Couples and David Frost.

Golfers of all skill levels enjoy the challenges encountered on the Championship Course, which stretches up to 7,604 yards and plays to par-72 and features multiple lines of play. In addition to the Championship Course, Coore and Crenshaw have designed a nine-hole Short Course that winds through the Ponderosa pines in the upper part of the Colorado Golf Club property. LINKS Magazine calls it one of the best in the country. The Short Course is a perfect late afternoon family getaway. The practice area at Colorado Golf Club is ranked among the best in America by Golf Digest. With dramatic views of Pikes Peak, Devils Head and Mount Evans, the sweeping, downhill range is a beautiful place to work on one’s game. The practice area features: Two 120-yard tee boxes and a hidden “private” tee Five bunkered target greens maintained to on-course specifications A 7,000-square-foot short game area with bunkers, rough, collars and closely mown chipping areas An 8,000-square-foot putting green Colorado Golf Club's dramatic old-world clubhouse opened on October 1, 2011.

    Women’s Golf Tournament Program - 116 pages PING CELEBRATES 50 YEARS IN G OLF RICH HARVEST FARMS Fifty years ago, the first PING® putter was shipped from the Redwood City, California, garage of Karsten and Louise Solheim. The PING® 1A™ putter inaugurated a revolution in golf club design and manufacturing that would see Karsten’s company grow into a brand world-renowned for innovation and unequalled quality. Karsten, with his family at his side, went on to pioneer custom fitting and bring new processes to the manufacturing of golf clubs, including investment casting and heat treating. He recognized the value of scientific research and employed high speed cameras and a robotic golfer (The PING® Man) to analyze the dynamics of the golf club. His insistence on adhering to strict engineering principles and tight manufacturing tolerances raised the level of product performance and quality throughout the golf industry. It all led to more enjoyment for golfers all over the world. An engineer with an extensive background in the defense, aerospace and computer industries, he remains the only engineer to be inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame. Among the game-changing products that will be forever associated with Karsten are the Anser® putter and EYE2® irons. BUNKER HILL His wife of 63 years, Louise, who turned 91 in June, vividly remembers RICH HARVEST FARMS the moment Karsten informed her of his new putter’s name. “He came Be careful running into the kitchen,” she recalled, “and said, ‘I’ve got a name for my putter.’ I said ‘That’s nice, honey,’ and we ate our hamburgers and Proud sponsorof the of LPGA flat green vegetables without any particular celebration.
