Viking Classic

[msu21]

Any big names there this year? Is this the last year for it?

Answer to Question 1: There are a few major winners in it.

Answer to Question 2: No.

But that tournament has been in some tight spots before and managed to come through. So maybe there's hope.

Just an observation.

The economy is killing them. Tons of layoffs, pay cuts, cutting expenses by skipping trade shows.

I was just answering the question concerning this year. Hopefully there will be a title sponsor or series of sponsors who will help for 2011 and beyond.

"Fowler, 20, is in the Viking Classic that starts Thursday at Annandale Golf Club. It will be his third PGA Tour event as a pro this month. In the first two, he finished seventh and second, earning $553,700. If he places in the top 5 he will earn his card for next year. Since 1980, only six players have played their way into full PGA Tour status without going to Qualifying School: Gary Hallberg, Ryan Moore, Charles Howell III, Justin Leonard, Phil Mickelson and Woods, the undisputed No. 1 player in the world." -clarion ledger
