Trenham 2000 to 2009 2000 Jack Connelly was elected president of the PGA of America and John DiMarco won the New Jersey Open 2001 Terry Hatch won the stroke play and the match play tournaments at the PGA winter activities in Port St. Lucie 2002 The Section hosted the PGA of America national meeting at the Wyndham Franklin Plaza Hotel in Philadelphia 2003 Jim Furyk won the U.S. Open, Greg Farrow won the N.J. Open, Tom Carter won 3 times on the Nationwide Tour 2004 Pete Oakley won the Senior British Open 2005 Will Reilly was the PGA of America’s “ Junior Golf Leader” and Rich Steinmetz was on the PGA Cup Team 2006 Jim Furyk played on his fifth straight Ryder Cup Team, won the Vardon Trophy and two PGA Tour events 2007 In October the Philadelphia PGA and the Variety Club broke ground on the Variety Club’s 3-hole golf course 2008 Tom Carpus won the PGA of America’s Horton Smith Award and Hugh Reilly received the President Plaque 2009 Mark Sheftic finished second in the PGA Professional National Championship and played on the PGA Cup Team 2000 Jim Furyk won the Doral Open on the Doral Golf Resort’s Blue Course in the first week of March. The course nicknamed the “ Blue Monster” had been toughened in 1996 by adding 27 bunkers, which most of the play- ers didn’t care for. In 1999 the course had been reworked to its original Dick Wilson design, but now most of the players thought the course was too easy. The scores were low and Furyk took advantage of the changes. He put together rounds of 65, 67, 68 and 65, which added up to a 23 under par 265. Franklin Langham finished second at 267 and Nick Price was third at 270. David Duval and Shigeki Maruyama tied for fourth with 271s. First prize was $540,000 and the total payout was $3,000,000. The spring meeting of the Philadelphia Section was held at the DuPont Country Club on the first Monday of April. An item of interest was that major league tournament golf was back in the Section for the first time since the U.S. Open was at the Merion Golf Club in 1971. The PGA Tour’s SEI Pennsylvania Classic was being held at the Waynesborough Country Club in September and the U.S. Senior Open was scheduled for Saucon Valley Country Club in late June. Also there were two PGA Tour Buy.com tournaments being played in the Section that year. The new Steamtown Classic was scheduled for the first week of June near Scranton and the Hershey Open was to be played in early July. The Masters Tournament was played in the first full week of April and ended on the second Sunday. There were 95 entries from the list of invitees. Vijay Singh began with a 72 and a 67, which put him in a tie for the lead with Ernie Els. Saturday brought blustery winds and Singh put together a two under par 70 to take a three-stroke lead into the final round. Singh (278) shot a steady 69 on Sunday to win by three strokes over Els (281). First prize was $828,000. David Duval and Loren Roberts tied for third at 282. Jim Furyk tied for 14 th at 289 and won $80,500. Ted Tryba missed the cut. Furyk was invited to the tournament for having finished in the top sixteen in the 1999 Masters Tournament and Tryba was invited off having been in the top 30 money winners on the PGA Tour in 1999. The PGA Seniors’ Championship was held at the PGA National Golf Club in the middle of April. The tourna- ment was interrupted seven times by lightening and rain for a total of nearly 18 hours. In the end the tournament 1 was reduced to three rounds and it still took five days to complete that. Doug Tewell led from wire to wire with three rounds in the sixties. Tewell (201) shot rounds of 68, 66 and 67 to win by seven strokes. Tom Kite, Hale Irwin, Larry Nelson and Dana Quigley tied for second with eight under par 208 totals. First prize from the $1,800,000 purse was $324,000. All five of the Philadelphia Section members in the tournament made the cut. Ed Dougherty and Jay Sigel, who were regulars on the PGA Senior Tour, tied for 12 th at 214 and they each won $33,200. Aronimink Golf Club professional Jim Masserio tied for 17 th at 215 and won $20,563. Ken Peyre- Ferry (223), who had left the Little Mill Country Club to pursue the PGA Senior Tour, finished tied for 54 th win- ning $3,728. Pete Oakley (225), who was now a part-owner of a newly opened golf course called The Rookery, won $3,400 for a 66 th place tie. Jack Eckenrode, who was the owner of the Growcraft Golf Center Driving Range, had to withdraw before the tournament started because of a bad back. Dougherty was exempt for having finished in the top 15 in the tournament the year before and being in the top 50 money winners on the PGA Senior Tour. Sigel was exempt for being in the top 50 money winners on the PGA Senior Tour. Masserio, Peyre-Ferry, Oakley and Eckenrode were exempt for finishing in the top 55 in the PGA Senior Club Professional Champion- ship. Waynesborough Country Club hosted the local qualifying for the U.S. Open on the third Thursday of May. Cavaliers Country Club professional Dave McNabb led the scoring with a one-over-par 72. There were four open spots. Amateurs Anthony Sarko (73) Dan Terleski (74) and Vince Covello (75) won the other three places in the sectional qualifying. There were 24 entered at Waynesborough. Local qualifying for the U.S. Open was held at the Bucknell Golf Club on the third Thursday of May. Brian Kelly, who was in his first year as the head professional at the Bucknell Golf Club and Mike Molino, the assistant at the Huntsville Golf Club, picked up the two available spots with one over par 71s. Joe Daley, a native of Chestnut Hill, returned to his home area for the U.S. Open local qualifying and earned the medalist honors. Qualifying was at the Philadelphia Country Club on the fourth Monday of May. There were 110 pros and amateurs competing for eight spots at the sectional qualifying two weeks later. Daley, who was play- ing the PGA’s Buy.com Tour, turned in a three under par 68 to lead the field. Amateur Robin McCool and South Carolina’s Tom Shaw tied for second with 69s. Another pro, Michael Christie, was next with a 70. Eagle Lodge Country Club assistant John Spina, Links Golf Club assistant Vince Ramagli, Radnor Valley Country Club pro- fessional George Forster, Sr. and Georgia amateur Jedd McLuen won the next four places but they had to go extra holes with two other players. Spina, Ramagli and Forster survived by making pars on the first extra hole. Local qualifying for the U.S. Open was at the Chambersburg Country Club on the fourth Monday of May. Lebanon’s Greg Lesher, who was playing the PGA Buy.com Tour, and amateur William Smith picked up the first two places with even par 73s. Ted Sheftic’s son Mark Sheftic, who was playing the professional golf mini tours, won the third and last spot with a three-over-par 76. The PGA Tour’s Buy.com Steamtown Classic qualifying for Philadelphia Section members was held at the Glenmaura National Golf Club on the fourth Tuesday of May. The PGA Tour had provided three places in the tournament for Section members. Torresdale-Frankford Country Club assistant Jim Jones was low with a two- under-par 69. The other two spots went to Indian Spring Golf Club professional David Quinn (72) and Overbrook Golf Club professional Stu Ingraham (73). On the last Tuesday of May Rick Osberg, who was now a part owner of the Kimberton Family Golf Driving Range, aced Sunnybrook Golf Club’s 15 th hole on the way to winning the Rittenhouse Trust Golf Classic. Osberg completed the round in 69 strokes, which put him in at three-way tie with Stu Ingraham and Brian Kelly, who also posted three under par 69s. Osberg went on to win the first place check of $17,500 in a sudden-death playoff. David Quinn, George Forster, Sr. and St. Davids Golf Club assistant David Coates tied for fourth with 70s. There were 150 entries and the course measured 6,823 yards. The first prize was being increased $2,500 each year by the Rittenhouse Trust company. Open qualifying for the PGA Tour’s Steamtown Classic was at the Glen Oak Country Club on the fifth Tues- day of May. Because Memorial Day was on that Monday the course wasn’t available until the next day. There were 12 openings up for grabs. Mike Molino and the host professional Cleve Coldwater had sponsor exemptions. 2 The PGA Buy.com Tour’s first annual Steamtown Classic was played at the Glenmaura National Golf Club on the first four days of June. Ian Leggatt (276) shot a course record tying 65 in the last round. Three putts on the last green left him one stroke out of a tie for the top spot with Jeff Hart (72-70-65-68—275) who had tied the course record the day before.

  • Summary As Introducedxx (2/6/2018)
    Legislative Analysis LIQUOR LICENSE FOR PGA TOUR Phone: (517) 373-8080 http://www.house.mi.gov/hfa CHAMPIONS TOURNAMENT Analysis available at House Bill 5190 as introduced http://www.legislature.mi.gov Sponsor: Rep. Tim Sneller Committee: Regulatory Reform Complete to 2-6-17 SUMMARY: House Bill 5190 would amend the Michigan Liquor Control Code to include the Professional Golfers’ Association (PGA) Tour Champions Tournament as a sports-related event of national prominence eligible to receive a national sporting event license that allows the sale of alcohol on the premises concerning a national sporting event. Eligibility for the license would be for Tour events in 2018, 2019, and 2020. The PGA Championship and Champions Tour is a men’s professional senior golf tournament affiliated with the PGA Tour. MCL 436.1517a BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The Michigan Liquor Control Code allows special liquor licenses to be issued for the duration of national sporting events under certain circumstances, including if the national sporting event is conducted under the auspices of a national sanctioning body and the Liquor Control Commission determines that the event will attract a substantial number of tourists from outside the state. Past events have included the 2004 Ryder Cup, 2006 NFL Super Bowl, 2008 PGA Championship, 2009 NCAA Final Four, and the U.S. Golf Association Amateur Championship in 2016. In 2018, Michigan will host two PGA Tour Champions Tournament events: The Kitchen Aid Senior PGA Championship, May 24 to 26, in Benton Harbor, and The Ally Challenge, September 14 to 16, at the Warwick Hills Golf and Country Club in Grand Blanc.

  • Ron Arnst's HMG Course Collection Summaries
    HISTORY MAKER GOLF Championship Golf Game • Course Summaries Course Collection ONE Blackjack GC, Las Vegas NV / based on TPC SUMMERLIN TPC Summerlin’s layout, carved from a magnificent swath of rugged desert terrain by renowned golf course architect Bobby Weed, provides a good reference for the Blackjack GC. TPC Summerlin’s lush bentgrass greens, numerous water features and an abundance of pine trees all contrast dramatically with undisturbed desert washes. The course features four closing holes that deliver top flight golf drama. The final charge begins with the par 4, 15th hole – a drivable par 4 that will temp most players. If the tee shot misses the green, an “up and down” birdie is possible, but not easy, due to the severely elevated and undulated green – which is surrounded by five bunkers that regularly attract stray tee shots. The 16th hole is a relatively downhill par-5 that is reachable with two good shots. The green is guarded by water short of the green, and bunkers beyond. Only a mid-iron will be necessary for the second shot, with a birdie almost a certainty. A challenging and un-nerving par-3, the 17th hole plays downhill with the green guarded closely by a lake on the left and by bunkers on the right. Par is good score and birdies are rare, should players need to make up ground. The 18th is a well-designed and strategic finishing hole which moves right to left off the tee. The green is protected on the left by a lake. An aggressive tee shot with the driver can leave the player just a short iron to a very deep green from front to back.

  • The (Adverse) Incentive Effects of Competing with Superstars
    \The (Adverse) Incentive Effects of Competing with Superstars: A Reexamination of the Evidence"1 Robert A. Connolly and Richard J. Rendleman, Jr. February 22, 2013 1Robert A. Connolly is Associate Professor, Kenan-Flagler Business School, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. Richard J. Rendleman, Jr. is Professor Emeritus, Kenan-Flagler Business School, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill and Visiting Professor at the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth. The authors thank the PGA TOUR for providing the ShotLink data and a portion of the Official World Golf Rankings data used in connection with this study and Mark Broadie, Edwin Burmeister and David Dicks for providing very helpful comments. We thank Jennifer Brown for providing us with a condensed ver- sion of her STATA code, providing her weather and Official World Golf Ranking data, and providing lists of events employed in her study. We also thank her for responding to many of our questions in corre- spondence and providing comments on earlier drafts of this paper.

We show that Brown's conclusions are based on a problematic empirical design, which if corrected yields no evidence of a superstar effect.

Therefore, this study ex- 16 plored the cognitions of seven professional snooker players during real-time solo practice 17 performance. Design: A Think Aloud (TA) protocol analysis. Method: This involved players 18 verbalizing and explaining their thoughts within naturalistic practice environments. Player’s 19 verbalizations were recorded during each solo practice performance, transcribed verbatim, 20 and analyzed via protocol analysis. Results: Analyses revealed an array of continuous reac- 21 tive-adaptive cognitions relating to stressors and coping strategies during performance, as 22 well as general snooker-specific related thoughts. Specifically, the results highlighted key 23 stressor themes which were coded as: Table Conditions, Distractions, and Mistakes. Our 24 main finding was: Shot Preparation being essential to problem-focused coping, with Ration- 25 alizing integral to emotion-focused coping. Further results highlighted the visualperceptual 26 and cognitive expertise of players, with regards to identification of problem balls and cueball 27 spatial awareness, insofar as unearthing the deliberate structure to practice routines.
