NATIONWIDE TOUR STORYLINES – Week of June 18Th NATIONWIDE TOUR STORYLINES – Week of June 18th PREFERRED HEALTH SYSTEMS WICHITA OPEN June 21-24 Crestview Country Club Wichita, Kansas Purse: $600,000 First Prize: $108,000 2011 Champion: Mathew Goggin 156 players 12 th of 27 events CONGRATULATIONS, WEBB SIMPSON! – Patience and four mid-round birdies were pivotal in former Nationwide Tour player Webb Simpson capturing his first major title on Sunday. His win in the 112 th U.S. Open Championship was the 16 th major won by a Tour alumnus and the 333rd PGA TOUR win by the group. Simpson played on the Nationwide Tour in 2008 when he had runner-up finishes in Springfield, Mo. and Chattanooga, Tenn. THREE IN A ROW – The last three major championships have been won by former Nationwide Tour players – Keegan Bradley (PGA Championship), Bubba Watson (Masters) and Webb Simpson (U.S. Open). 7 FOR 12 AT THE OPEN – Twelve current Nationwide Tour members played in last week’s U.S. Open, with seven making the cut. Those seven were Casey Wittenberg (T10), Aaron Watkins (T15*), Alistair Presnell (T29*), Steve Lebrun (T46*), Nicholas Thompson (T51), Jeff Curl (T56*) and Darron Stiles (T59). All seven are entered in this week’s Preferred Health Systems Wichita Open as are the five who missed the cut at Olympic, Paul Claxton, Brice Garnett (*), James Hahn (*), Jim Herman and Justin Hicks. As of Monday, the Wichita field featured 23 of the current 25 leading money winners and 89 of the top 100. Note: Asterisk indicates first major championship played. MIDWEST RUN – This week’s Preferred Health Systems Wichita Open marks the beginning of a run of six tournaments over seven weeks in the Midwest. Wichita will be followed by a new event in Evansville, Ind. (United Leasing Championship at Victoria National Golf Club), plus stops in Columbus, Ohio, Omaha, Neb., Springfield, Mo. and Kansas City, Kan. The lone exception is the Utah Championship presented by Utah Sports Commission (July 12-15). Wichita has been a stop on the Nationwide Tour schedule since the Tour’s inception in 1990, along with Springfield, Boise, Idaho and Knoxville, Tenn. PHSWO ON THE RISE – The Preferred Health Systems Wichita Open has raised its community and charitable profile considerably in the last few years. In 2011, it raised a record $212,000 for 40 local charities. In addition to several pro-ams that support the charity fund-raising component of the tournament, the Open will feature a handful of activities for tournament attendees of all ages, including Epilepsy Awareness Day (see next note). JEFF KLAUK-INSPIRED EPILEPSY AWARENESS DAY – Friday (June 22 nd ) will be “Epilepsy Awareness Day” in Wichita. The influence to do this comes from Jeff Klauk ’s personal dealings with epilepsy. Jeff is a very popular past champion in Wichita (2003). Tournament officials have elected to promote epilepsy awareness in support of Jeff. Over the winter, Jeff had epilepsy brain surgery as he fights to get back on TOUR. Purple ribbons will be distributed to players, caddies, staff, sponsors and spectators on the 22nd , with all encouraged to wear purple. “Wichita holds a special place in my heart,” Klauk said. “The fact they are dedicating a day to epilepsy awareness is exciting and humbling. I’m making good progress in my battle with epilepsy and am looking forward to resuming my playing career soon.” HOME GAME FOR WOODY AUSTIN – Three-time PGA TOUR winner and 2007 President Cup participant Woody Austin lives in the Wichita suburb of Derby. The Florida native will be making his fifth appearance in the Preferred Health Systems Wichita Open. He played in the event last year for the first time since 1998 and finished T35. Austin is currently 24 th on the Nationwide Tour money list. NASCAR’S CLINT BOWYER PAYS A VISIT – NASCAR Sprint Cup driver Clint Bowyer will play as a guest of tournament sponsor Hawker Beechcraft in this week’s pro-am on Wednesday. The Emporia, Kan. native has five wins on NASCAR’s top circuit. Bowyer’s car is sponsored by 5-Hour Energy, the same company that sponsors PGA TOUR star and former Nationwide Tour player Jim Furyk. BIRTHDAY BOYS – Celebrating birthdays this week in Kansas are Craig Bowden (18 th /turns 44) and Charles Warren (21 st /37). NEXT WEEK – Evansville, Indiana will host the Nationwide Tour for the first time. The United Leasing Championship at Victoria National Golf Club will be played June 28 – July 1. # # # James Cramer Jeff Adams Joe Chemycz Royce Thompson 904-273-3293 904-273-3397 904-273-3305 904-543-7419 For the latest information, scores and updates on the Nationwide Tour visit www.pgatourmedia.com Media and fans can also follow the Tour on Twitter ( http://twitter.com/nationwidetour ) and Facebook (www.Facebook.com/NationwideTour) .

  • WEB.COM TOUR STORYLINES – Week of July 2Nd
    WEB.COM TOUR STORYLINES – Week of July 2nd The Web.com Tour is off this week, then heads to the Salt Lake City area next week for the Utah Championship presented by Utah Sports Commission (July 12-15). PETER TOMASULO BECOMES FIRST TO WIN ON “WEB.COM TOUR” – The first tournament played under the tour’s new name, the Web.com Tour, was clearly a memorable one. Peter Tomasulo outlasted David Lingmerth of Sweden in a four-hole playoff to capture the inaugural United Leasing Championship at Victoria National Golf Club near Evansville, Ind. It was the third Web.com Tour win for the 30-year-old Californian and caps a 21-month long comeback from a litany of injuries that includes a broken bone in his foot and a stress fracture in his rib. The latter led to his current PGA TOUR Medical Extension. Tomasulo was playing in only his second Web.com Tour event of 2012. He made one PGA TOUR start in late January. Last Wednesday, Web.com, a Jacksonville, Fla.-based provider of internet services and marketing solutions to small- to medium-sized businesses, replaced Nationwide Insurance as the tour’s umbrella sponsor, effective immediately. There were 280 events played since 2003 with Nationwide as the sponsor. Since the Tour’s inception in 1990, 663 events have been played. One thing everyone in Evansville will want to forget is the record-setting temperatures that reached at least 103 degrees every day. LATE-SEASON BLOOMER !? – As a rookie last year on the Web.com Tour, David Lingmerth missed the cut in eight of his first 11 starts, a period in which he did not have a top-15 finish, and was well outside the top-100 money leaders.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Royce Thompson June 22, 2018 (316) 440-4683 Second-Round Leaderboard Pos. Name Scores 1 Scott Pinckney 67-64—131 (-9) 2 Sebastian Cappelen 65-68—133 (-7) 3 Ben Kohles 65-69—134 (-6) Chris Thompson 70-64—134 (-6) Scott Pinckney takes two-stroke lead into weekend at Wichita Open WICHITA, Kan. – Scott Pinckney’s journey to the top of the Wichita Open Supporting Wichita’s Youth leaderboard has been filled with obstacles. Pinckney, 29, has been dealing with a back injury that sidelined him for a year. The Web.com Tour veteran’s game has rounded into form and he is just 36 holes away from earning his first Tour victory after a second-round 64. At 9-under-par, Pinckney is two-strokes ahead of 2014 Wichita Open champions Sebastian Cappelen. Ben Kohles and Kansas native Chris Thompson are three behind heading into the weekend. “I couldn’t repeat anything,” said Pinckney. “My back was different week-in and week-out and I couldn’t repeat anything. About a month and a half ago, two months ago it kind of clicked where my speed kind of came back and I was able to repeat and hit shots.” “I was able to get my control back and hit shots,” he continued. “It’s been progressing, my game has been building which I’m excited about. I’ve been hitting it awesome the last few weeks and made nothing so it’s nice to see the ball go in the hole.” Pinckney, who is from Orem, Utah, has made some swing changes since discovering he had a dehydrated disc in his L5.

  • UGA Gold Club Award
    UGA GOLD CLUB AWARD The UGA Gold Club Award is presented annually to an individual who through significant achievement or unselfish service has contributed to the history and tradition of the game of golf in Utah, and whose personal integrity, sportsmanship, common courtesy, loyalty, and friendship earn him the love and respect of his fellow golfers. 2017 - Linda Olsen 2009 - Keith Hansen 2000 - Ernie Schneiter, Jr. 1991 - Jimmy Thompson 2016 - Reed McGregor 2008 - Joe Watts 1999 - Toni Guest 1990 - Karl Tucker 2015 - Judy Allem 2007 - Parley Petersen 1998 - Gordon Sperry 1989 - Steve Dunford 2014 - Randy Dodson 2006 - Doug Vilven 1997 - Scott Whittaker 1988 - George Marks 2013 - Dr. Pete Randall 2005 - Tony Bermingham 1996 - Lynn Summerhays 2013 - Dave Terry 2004 - Sonny Braun 1995 - Garey Chadwick 2012 - Tommy Sorensen 2003 - Jerry Marks 1994 - Larry Disera 2011 - Kent McCurdy 2002 - Jeff Beaudry 1993 - Mark Passey 2010 - Sherm Hatfield 2001 - Jeannie Goddard 1992 - Marion Dunn The 30th person ever to receive the Utah Golf Association's Gold Club Award believes she was already rewarded by the game, long before now. Linda Olsen is being recognized for her contributions to the golf, most notably helping to build the Bountiful Ridge Ladies Association's remarkable membership. Those efforts may have been designed with some degree of self-interest initially, but her impact has gone far beyond creating an after-work 2017 playing opportunity for herself. The Gold Club Award has a special place in the UGA honors, because of its definition: The award is “presented annually to an individual who through significant achievement or unselfish service has contributed to the history and tradition of the game of golf in Utah, and whose personal integrity, sportsmanship, common courtesy, loyalty, and friendship earn the love and respect of fellow golfers.” That describes Olsen's influence quite well.
