Betty Puskar Golf Classic
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Betty Pusker Golf Classic is an annual golf tournament for professional women golfers on the FUTURES Tour, the LPGA's developmental tour. The event has been a part of the FUTURES Tour's schedule since 1992. It takes place at The Pines Country Club in Morgantown, West Virginia.
The Tournament is a 54-hole event, as are most FUTURES Tour tournaments, and includes pre-tournament pro-am opportunities, in which local amateur golfers can play with the professional golfers from the Tour as a benefit for local charities. The benefiting charity for the Betty Pusker Golf Classic is the Betty Puskar Breast Care Center.
The tournament was most recently held between August 10 and August 12, 2007.
