PGA Cup
The PGA Cup is a men's golf competition for club professionals played between a Great Britain and Ireland team and a United States team. The winning team is presented with the Llandudno Trophy. The competition is run by the British PGA and the PGA of America. It was first played in 1973 and was an annual event until 1984, after which it became biennial. History The first two contests, at Pinehurst, North Carolina, in 1973 and 1974, were contested for the Diamondhead Cup. Diamondhead Corp. was the owner of Pinehurst and sponsored the event. From 1975, the event was organised by the two PGAs and became known as the PGA Cup. In 1990 the event was opened up to the golfers from continental Europe but from 1996 the British PGA team was again restricted to players from Great Britain and Ireland.

Llandudno International Golf Trophy
The Llandudno International Golf Trophy was a professional team match play golf tournament that was played at the Maesdu Golf Club from 28 to 30 September 1938. The tournament was contested between England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales. It was intended to be the first of a series of matches but the Second World War interrupted these plans and the contests were not restarted after the war. England won the tournament by winning all their three matches against the other teams. The Maesdu Golf Club joined with the local Llandudno council to stage the tournament with the idea of promoting tourism in the area. A Triangular Professional Tournament with a similar format but involving only Scotland, Ireland and Wales had been contested at Cawder Golf Club near Glasgow from 21 to 23 October 1937. This was won by Scotland with Wales second and Ireland third."Scotland win - Tournament at Cawder". ''The Times'', Monday, 25 October 1937; pg. 8; Issue 47824. The concept of a professional hom ...

CordeValle Golf Club
CordeValle is a private golf course and spa resort on the West Coast of the United States, located near San Martin, California, southeast of San Jose. It is in the Santa Clara Valley, near the eastern edge of the Santa Cruz Mountains. The club's 1996 permit required that 60% of the golf rounds played be reserved for the general public, but the Club defines "general public" as including guests of members. In the resulting dispute with the county planning commission, the club agreed to create a Youth Golf Foundation, to pay for underprivileged youths to learn the game of golf at CordeValle or elsewhere. In exchange, the planning commission agreed to waive the requirement for 60% public play. Cordevalle is owned by billionaire Hasso Plattner who is the Co-Founder of SAP and majority owner of the San Jose Sharks Events From 2010 PGA Tour, 2010 to 2013, CordeValle hosted the Frys.com Open on the PGA Tour; in October 2013 it was the first event of the wraparound 2014 season.

Derek Sprague
Derek is a masculine given name. It is the English language short form of Diederik, the Low Franconian form of the name Theodoric. Theodoric is an old Germanic name with an original meaning of "people-ruler" or "lead the people". Common variants of the name are Derrek, Derik, Deryck (included here), as well as Derrick and Derick. History The English form of the name arises in the 15th century, via import from the Low Countries. The native English (Anglo-Saxon) form of the name was ''Deoric'' or ''Deodric'', from Old English ''Þēodrīc'', but this name had fallen out of use in the medieval period. During the Late Middle Ages, there was intense contact between the territories adjacent to the North Sea, in particular due to the activities of the Hanseatic League. As a result, there was a lot of cross-pollination between Low German, Dutch, English, Danish and Norwegian. The given name ''Derk'' is found in records of the Low Countries from the early 14th century, and in t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Suzy Whaley
Suzy Whaley (born November 10, 1966) is an American professional golfer. Early life Whaley is from Connecticut. Professional career Whaley is an LPGA Teaching and Club Professional (T&CP) member who played on the LPGA Tour in 1993. In 2003, she became the first woman in 58 years to qualify for a PGA Tour event when she qualified for the 2003 Greater Hartford Open, after winning the 2002 Connecticut PGA Championship. She was also the first woman to win a PGA individual professional tournament. Whaley's achievement, however, is questioned by some because the regional qualifying tournament she won was aided by her being allowed to play the course off tees 699 yards shorter than the men she competed against in that regional qualifying. Whaley played 6,239 yards, while the men had to play 6,938 yards (a 10% shorter course). This anomaly was addressed later by the PGA, under the "Whaley rule", introduced in 2003, which requires all entrants at qualifying tournaments, whether male ...
