  • Ian Woosnam Returning to Defend Title Tournament Field Includes Past Champions & Hall of Famers
    Ian Woosnam Returning to Defend Title Tournament Field Includes Past Champions & Hall of Famers THE WOODLANDS, TX – April 12, 2016 —The Insperity Invitational presented by UnitedHealthcare will be celebrating its 13th anniversary May 2-8 as the 2015 champion Ian Woosnam returns to compete against one of the strongest fields on the PGA TOUR Champions schedule. Woosnam has the opportunity to join Bernhard Langer as the only player in tournament history to successfully defend his title. Langer, who accomplished the feat by winning the 2007 and 2008 Insperity Invitational, will not be competing this year so he can attend his daughter’s college graduation. Joining Woosnam will be seven other past winners of Houston’s PGA TOUR Champions event—Larry Nelson (2004), Mark McNulty (2005), Jay Haas (2006), John Cook (2009), Brad Faxon (2011), Fred Funk (2012) and Esteban Toledo (2013). In addition, five World Golf Hall-of-Fame members are currently in the field: Tom Kite, Mark O’Meara, Curtis Strange, Colin Montgomerie and Sandy Lyle. “The field for this year’s tournament will once again be a fantastic combination of golf’s legends, new PGA TOUR Champions members, Hall of Fame members and the best players in the world age 50 and over,” said Bryan Naugle, Executive Director of the Insperity Invitational. “We are excited with all aspects of the tournament both on and off the golf course. The fans in the Houston area are in for a real treat as this annual tradition continues.” There are eight categories of eligibility in the invitational format, making this event unique on the PGA TOUR Champions schedule.

  • Mitsubishi Electric Championship at Hualalai Second-Round Notes
    Page 1 of 2 | Second-Round Notes Mitsubishi Electric Championship at Hualalai Hualalai Golf Course | Ka’upulehu-Kona, Hawai’i | January 15-20, 2018 Second-Round Notes Friday, January 19, 2018 Course Setup: Par 72 / 7,107 yards Weather: Mostly sunny skies were forecast today with some afternoon clouds near the mountains. The trade winds across the islands will begin to subside and the Kona side of the Big Island will return to a normal sea breeze wind pattern. High in the low 80s and wind from SW at 8-16 mph. Purse: $1,800,000 (Winner: $300,000) Player To Par Scores 1. Colin Montgomerie -14 34-31 – 65 T2 Gene Sauers -12 33-35 – 68 T2. Jerry Kelly -12 36-32 – 68 4. David Toms -11 34-32 – 66 T5 Doug Garwood -10 33-34 – 67 T5. Mark Calcavecchia -10 34-33 – 67 T5. Austin Woody -10 33-34 – 67 Quick Links • Leaderboard • Third-round starting times Colin Montgomerie, 34-31 – 65 (-14) Montgomerie solidified his solo lead and a position in Saturday’s final group after slinging together three consecutive birdies on the back nine (13,14,15). His second-round score of 65 is a new personal best at Hualalai, beating his R3 66 from 2015 by one stroke. His success in the opening 36-holes is due in part to his accuracy off the tee. The World Golf Hall of Famer leads the field in fairways hit (25/28 -- 89.3%) In 2017’s 36-hole event at Hualalai, Montgomerie carded two rounds in the 60s (68-67 – 135) and finished the tournament -9 at T13.

  • AMERICAN FAMILY INSURANCE CHAMPIONSHIP June 1, 2015
    AMERICAN FAMILY INSURANCE CHAMPIONSHIP June 1, 2015 Jack Salzwedel Tim Finchem Steve Stricker Barry Alvarez DAVE MARR: Welcome, everyone. I'm David Marr with the Golf Channel. Just wanted to let you all know that the Golf Channel is going to be recording this press conference right here, do some interviews and air it on a pregame show before the NCAA Championships later on today. Our schedule has been moved around and we're very excited with what we're about to have announced here, looking forward not only to this day but also next year and the years to come. Wisconsin golf is something that's been important obviously to the game of golf and to the Golf Channel, but now with the Champions Tour coming to town, it's going to be a lot of fun from this area. There's a player whose passion and foresight in all of his work really was the motivation behind making this happen. We have a video right now to tell you a bit about that man. (Video played.) DAVE MARR: This man, Steve Stricker, certainly is going to carry through, I'm sure, this event and onward. I would like to welcome everyone here, fellow members of the media; hopefully you're as excited as we all are, and introduce the folks here on the panel. I'm sure you all know down the far left is the director of athletics for the University of Wisconsin, Barry Alvarez. Next to him, a man who, again, the talent and decency I've met very few people who equal his gentlemanly stature in the game of golf, always a pleasure to be around and to watch play golf, Steve Stricker.
