The Legends Tour will return to the Island Course at Innisbrook, A
Salamander Golf and Spa Resort, this fall for the Tour’s second annual
major championship, the Legends Tour Open Championship. Drawing
thousands of fans in 2009, the LTOC was played for the first time in the
United States, the same year it was elevated to major status by Tour
officials. With a field that included five Hall of Famers, LPGA Tour
regular and Legends Tour rookie Sherri Steinhauer powered back from
sidelining injuries to win $50,000.
“We are
thrilled to come back to the Island Course that is as challenging as it
is beautiful,” said Jane Blalock, CEO of The Legends Tour and 27-time
winner on the LPGA Tour. “We look forward to competing again at
Innisbrook and playing to our cheering fans. And of course, we
appreciate the partnership with the Hoffman Institute, a very worthy
cause and once that rings true with our patron sponsor, Dr. Haruhisa
Handa,” added Blalock. |
