Abstract/Contents: | Announces that Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville, Kentucky, designed by Jack Nicklaus, is to host the 2008 Ryder Cup. States that "there is no bigger stage than the Ryder Cup, and all those involved - the PGA [Professional Golfers Association], Nicklaus and Valhalla - want to impress come September 2008." Describes the renovations taking place to get the course ready for the Ryder Cup, including "[creating] more viewing areas for spectators, [improving] the course for members, and to keep pace with advances in golf equipment technology and the skill level of today's PGA Tour players." States that a "crew removed about 900 trees - mostly oak, sycamore and ash - from the more heavily wooded areas to give the course a more park-like setting." Concludes that "PGA officials hope to wow the golf world with a new Valhalla." |
