Tom Lehman Commits to DICK’S Sporting Goods Open

They say that "good things come to those who wait" and now it's only a week away. It's the DICK’S Sporting Goods Open Champions Tour event at En-Joie Golf Course, August 24th-30th.

2-Time Charles Schwab Cup Champion, Tom Lehman has committed to the field.

With Tom joining the field, the tournament now have 27 of the top 30 from last year's money list including defending champion Bernhard Langer. He's looking to be the first to win back to back DSG Open titles.

There's a lot going on all week besides golf. One of the things that I'm looking forward to is the Johnny Hart Memorial Christian Fellowship Breakfast at the Kalurah Building in Endicott on Thursday the 27th.

It begins at 7:30am and is hosted by The Golf Channel's Dave Marr III. Loren Roberts, Mike Goodes, Lee Janzen, and 1996 B.C. Open Champion (and one of my favorites) Fred Funk will share how faith has played in their daily lives and their golf game.

All proceeds benefit the CHOW Food Bus. Tickets are available through the Broome County Council of Churches and at the DICK’S Sporting Goods Open Office at En-Joie Golf Course.

You can also get tickets at the door but I got a table of 10 ahead of time so I can sit with my friends. Anytime that you can talk golf AND have breakfast with Christian athletes, that's a good way to start your day.

Other events include the Health Expo and Golf Show with Nancy Lopez for the 3rd year on Wednesday the 26th.

The Friday night (8/28) concert with Lady Antebellum and Sam Hunt. The Wendy's Walk for Kids will end with a walk down the 18th on Sunday the 30th.

To see all thing's DSG Open, go here. It's a couple of weeks later this year. Oh and in case you were wondering, it's the weekend before Labor Day.
