New Jersey Golf Net

Via NewJerseyNewsroom.com: Wednesday morning in New York brought showers but perhaps the brightest face on a gray day at Madison Square Garden was that of Michael Whan, who was selected as the surprise choice to be the LPGA's newest commissioner… Will all this positive energy mean anything for golf fans in New Jersey, which despite being the home of the USGA, lost the annual Sybase Open from the Upper Montclair Country Club? Perhaps, as LPGA officials confirmed that several sites are being considered for a new or moved LPGA event in the Garden State, with an announcement anticipated in the next few weeks. The return of an LPGA event to New Jersey would give the Tour a much needed presence in the area at a time of year when brands are making all the key decisions on spending for 2010.
