R. P. MENSAJE DEL PRESIDENTE El ABIERTO DE GOLF INTERNACIONAL 1979 se reanuda después de cinco años gracias al patrocinio de tres instituciones que siempre se han caracterizado en promover actividades que le­ vantan el entusiasmo de aficionados y público en general. Son estas instituciones TABACALERA ISTMEÑA, S.A., el INSTITUTO PANAMEÑO DE TURISMO y el CLUB DE GOLF DE PANAMA, que me honro en presidir y cuyos miembros, con ese ánimo y desinterés que siempre los ha caracterizado, apoyan el torneo, que es uno de los eventos deportivos más importantes del país. Debemos señalar que este Abierto, en cierto sentido, empezó a planearse en febrero de 1974, en la entrega de premios de aquel torneo que con tristeza sabíamos que sería el último en un número indeterminado de años, y que en medio de la música, comentarios, brindis y despedidas, estábamos cons­ cientes que el viejo Club de Vía Porras ya era casi algo del pasado, y que pronto se iniciaría la construcción del nuevo Proyecto en Cerro Viento. Lejos nos encontrábamos de pensar en ese entonces que Dick Dehlinger, el Presidente y motor del Abierto desde la década de los cincuenta, sería el gran ausente en el primer Abierto en la nueva cancha. Mucho menos pensamos que nos tocaría a nosotros compartir con los que hoy nos han acompañado en todas las fases de organización, de ánimo, desaliento y es­ peranzas, el honor y la responsabi 1 i dad ineludible de lle­ varlo a cabo con éxito. No puedo dejar de mencionar a las 21 empresas patrocinadoras, y a las diversas autoridades nacionales y de las Fuerzas Armadas de los Estados Unidos de América que con su apoyo también han hecho pos i ble la realización de este Abierto de Golf 1979 . A los patrocinadores, socios y comisiones que han colaborado, deseamos expresarles nuestro más profundo y sincero agradeci­ miento, esperando que disfruten este evento que cada año irá cobrando más impulso y recuperando el lugar que le pertenece en la historia del deporte.

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.
