In this episode, the Philly Foursome is live from the Haverford Philadelphia PGA Classic at Sunnybrook Golf Club. The Haverford is the most unique, one-day PGA Section Event in America, with a $100k winner-take-all first place prize.
The team has a countless amount of special guests on this episode, including reps from Haverford Trust Company, Sunnybrook Golf Club, Philadelphia PGA, and top players in the tournament. We discuss everything from the beginings of the Haverford Classic, the origins of Inside Golf, how courses are prepared for tournament play, and how players prepare for tournament play.
