The Legends Tour was

founded in 2000 by LPGA

professionals over the age of

45, to showcase the talents

of some of the greatest

women’s golfers of all time.

The Legends Tour has more

than 120 members, including

14 LPGA andWorld Golf Hall

of Fame members. Legends

Tour players have over

750

combined

LPGA

Tour victories, including

86 major championships. In

its 15 seasons, The Legends

Tour has awarded more than

$14 million in prize money

and helped raise more than

$19 million for charity.

With this announcement,

The Legends Tour now adds

two major championships

to its schedule. The USGA

announced earlier in 2016

that it would host the first

U.S. Senior Women’s Open

Championship beginning in

2018 at Chicago Golf Club.

The Dye Course at French

Lick has also hosted the

PGA Professional National

Championship in 2010

and the 2015 Senior PGA

Championship.

The Donald Ross

course was

completed in1920 andhosted

the 1924 PGAChampionship,

won byWalter Hagen, as well

as, the 1959 and 1960 LPGA

Championships.

Adding

two

major

championships

to

The

Legends Tour and airing them

on national television will

help to grow the game among

women across the country.
