We join the West Coast swing.  Played at the iconic Torrey Pines golf resort, which has been the venue for two U.S. Opens . . . you remember . . . Tiger won on a broken leg.  (He loves this course, besides the Open he won this event 7 times . . .  four in a row.)

 

 

 

 

This was first played in 1952 as the San Diego Open and was held at the San Diego Country Club.  Although not affected by the L.A. Fires this year . . . expect coverage, ribbons and donations.

 

 

 

 

The first champion was Ted Kroll.  This was Ted’s first of eight wins on the PGA tour.  It netted him a winners check of $2,000.  A hero in WWII, he received three purple hearts for wounds received in battle.  He was leading money winner on the tour in 1956 and played on three Ryder Cups . . . his record was 3-1.

 

 

 

 

FUN FACT: Our Champion, Matthieu Pavon’s father . . .  was a professional footballer.
