MERRY CHRISTMAS from all of us at Golfers on Golf. We hope your Christmas is a great one, and Santa brings you some golf goodies for the season ahead in 2019.

Is your tree up, and ready for tomorrows big day, here’s hoping it is, and that like us, not behind on the holiday greeting cards.

It’s been a busy week leading into Christmas day, and much of the news centers around the Western Golf Association and it’s new offices going up in The Glen, of Glenview. Then the WGA and Olympia Fields Country Club announced that OFCC, has the 2020 PGA Tour-WGA event to played on the clubs North Course. Sadly, the club announced yesterday that it cut ties with architect Keith Foster, who was scheduled to renovate both of the clubs courses over the next 2-4 years. That due to Fosters legals issues with the U.S. Government. If you have missed all the news the last few days, scroll down to our recent posts and get caught up.

Christmas time around the tree.

BIG 3 partner Len Ziehm has posted a Florida and the Floirda PGA update on his site, Lenziehmongolf.com. While some of the PGA of America staff will move to Texas in 3 years, the PGA will still have quite a presence in Florida. More on Florida golf with Len.

MORE NEWS on Olympia Fields can be found at Tim Cronin’s Illinois Golfer at Illinoisgolfer.net.

MARK YOUR CALENDARS-LADIES, as Women’s Golf Day in 2019 will be June 4th.

If you get a gift card or money to get new clubs for Christmas, make sure you check out the Mistwood Golf Dome, for fittings, trade in your old clubs credit special, and prices on new clubs, through Feb. 28th, before you go anywhere else.

With that, a Merry Christmas to everyone, and the Gog Blog Returns Wednesday Afternoon, December 26th. RS.
