Thunderbird Country Club served as the host of this inaugural event, with Tamarisk, Bermuda Dunes and Indian Wells Country Clubs filling out the rotation. The idea was to generate interest in the greater Palm Springs community with any net proceeds going to local charities (first year, $15,000!). Bob Rosburg created the tournament's unique five-day format played over four different courses with pros and amateurs participating. The first event, won by Arnold Palmer, was such a success that it was televised in 1961. Its one-of-a-kind format and strong participation from celebrities proved very popular and fit in with the emerging success of this exciting decade of golf. Bob Hope, a longtime resident of the desert, played in the early years and agreed to add his name to the 1965 tourna- ment, which then became The Bob Hope Desert Classic. Bob's personal regard among his peers in the entertainment industry brought even more celebrities to the tournament and the Classic Ball, one of only a very few black tie events in the desert. His relationships with Chrysler and NBC proved to be a boon to the event's popularity on television and with the pros playing in the event. Huge galleries attended and the Classic Ball was always a sellout. Because of this success, the ability to generate large amounts of charity dollars soon became apparent. The Board began to look at the needs of the Coachella Valley and where these charity dollars might do the most good. One such need was the lack of a hospital in the mid-Valley. Thanks to the personal efforts of Dolores and Bob Hope, General Eisenhower (who maintained a home at Eldorado Country Club) agreed to lend his name to this fledgling facility, thus the Eisenhower Medical Center was born. The Classic Board committed itself to generating funds to build and maintain this new not-for-profit hospital, the only one in the valley. Since then, the Eisenhower Medical Center and many Valley charities have benefitted from over $58 million in donations generated by Desert Classic Charities activities. Through the decades, the Classic remained a favorite stop on the Tour for many players. It nurtured its relationship with the PGA Tour and NBC Sports. In 1986, Chrysler became a title sponsor, a sponsorship that continued unbroken for twenty-three years until Chrysler's bankruptcy in 2009. In 2005, the H. C. and Frances N. Berger Foundation donated a golf course and clubhouse to the Classic which was used as the host club for 2006, 2007 and 2008. Its beauty and challenging play make it one of the top public courses in the country. In 2009, a decision was made to centralize tournament activities in the La Quinta area and the Classic Club was deeded back to the Berger Foundation. Although no longer using the Classic Club in the tournament rotation, the Foundation and Desert Classic Charities continue to enjoy a warm and mutually beneficial relationship. Although the 2010 and 2011 events did not have a title sponsor, Desert Classic Charities was able to produce both events on its own, continuing all the while to search for a title sponsor. Shortly after the 2011 tournament, negotiations began between the PGA TOUR, the Clinton Foundation, Humana and Desert Classic Charities. Ultimately Humana agreed to sponsor the event, joined by President Clinton and the Clinton Foundation in an eight-year agreement. The new relationship included a dramatic change in the event's fifty-plus year format, with fewer amateurs and more professionals, one less day of competition, one less course and a change in the name. The inaugural Humana Challenge, in 2012, was a tremendous success and generated considerable interest in the world of golf while continuing to support the desert community and its charities. Seizing an opportunity to further bolster the long-term health of the tournament and with Humana’s decision to step aside as the title sponsor, the PGA TOUR, Desert Classic Charities and the Clinton Foundation announced in May 2015 that CareerBuilder, the global leader in human capital solutions, would assume title sponsorship of the event. Additionally, the tournament announced that the Stadium and Nicklaus Tournament Courses at PGA WEST 3 Desert Classic Charities would join La Quinta Country Club in hosting the 2016 CareerBuilder Challenge. A year later, in May 2016, the PGA TOUR, Desert Classic Charities and CareerBuilder announced that the Clinton Foundation would end its official role with the tournament, and that World Golf Hall of Fame member Phil Mickelson would be taking on the role as the new ambassador.

  • Press Release
    PRESS RELEASE Desert Classic Charities Awards $10K Grant Benefitting East Valley Children Palm Desert, California (January 10, 2018) – The First Tee of the Coachella Valley (TFTCV) has been awarded a $10,000 grant from Desert Classic Charities (DCC) from the net proceeds generated by the 2017 CareerBuilder Challenge. The funds will support TFTCV year-round scholarships program at The Lights at Indio Municipal Golf Course, benefitting children living in Indio and surrounding communities. The eastern Coachella Valley is home to many children with parents working in low-income agricultural and service industry jobs. That’s according to a 2016 Poverty Rate Data report by City-Data.org. Overall, 37.5% of children in the Coachella Valley live in poverty compared California’s state-wide average of only 19.1 percent. Recently, TFTCV began hosting free junior golf clinics at their Indio location (The Lights) and witnessed the tremendous turnout from excited children. “This is incredible. Thanks to Desert Classic Charities, we can help children living in Indio and beyond. Not just with teaching great golf skills, with building future leaders in our communities too” - TFTCV Program Director Dustin Smith. Desert Classic Charities is the non-profit beneficiary of the CareerBuilder Challenge, the Coachella Valley’s PGA TOUR event. The mission of Desert Classic Charities is to help support children's charities of the Coachella Valley by hosting golf events or other fund raising efforts. Proceeds are distributed to Coachella Valley charities that offer structured programs focusing on the health, welfare, social development, and the supplemental educational and recreational needs of children, age 18 and under, living in the Coachella Valley.

  • Te Western Amateur Championship
    Te Western Amateur Championship Records & Statistics Guide 1899-2020 for te 119t Westrn Amatur, July 26-31, 2021 Glen View Club Golf, Il. 18t editon compiled by Tim Cronin A Guide to The Guide –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Welcome to the 119th Western Amateur Championship, and the 18th edition of The Western Amateur Records & Statistics Guide, as the championship returns to the Glen View Club for the first time since the 1899 inaugural. Since that first playing, the Western Amateur has provided some of the best competition in golf, amateur or professional. This record book allows reporters covering the Western Am the ability to easily compare current achievements to those of the past. It draws on research conducted by delving into old newspaper files, and by going through the Western Golf Association’s own Western Amateur files, which date to 1949. A few years ago, a major expansion of the Guide presented complete year-by-year records and a player register for 1899 through 1955, the pre-Sweet Sixteen era, for the first time. Details on some courses and field sizes from various years remain to be found, but no other amateur championship has such an in-depth resource. Remaining holes in the listings will continue to be filled in for future editions. The section on records has been revised, and begins on page 8. This includes overall records, including a summary on how the medalist fared, and more records covering the Sweet Sixteen years. The 209-page Guide is in two sections. Part 1 includes a year-by-year summary chart, records, a special chart detailing the 37 players who have played in the Sweet Sixteen in the 63 years since its adoption in 1956 and have won a professional major championship, and a comprehensive report on the Sweet Sixteen era through both year-by-year results and a player register.
