The PGA Tour purses were rapidly increasing and most of the tournaments were televised. There were concerns that there was too much golf being shown on TV. Playing the PGA Tour was a distant thought for most club pros. People were retiring earlier and more women were taking up the game so the rounds of golf were in- creasing each year. Senior golf was becoming very popular and the Phila- delphia Section was in on another first, as the Atlantic City Country Club would host the first official tournament of the new Senior PGA Tour.
