Nationwide Tour will set new record with first $1-million event in its historyAll prize funds from national tours are set to become obsolete this week after the Nationwide Tour announced that it was intending to host the first 1 million dollar tournament between July, 10th to 13th – to be called the Nationwide Tour Players Cup.
A new record will also be set by The Pete Dye Golf Club in Bridgeport that will see the highest first place cash prize in the tour’s history at $180,000.
The end of the season will see the top money winners will receive tour cards for the 2009 PGA Tour, with tour’s overall winner achieving exemption status and a place in The Players Championship.
The Nationwide Cup is second of total of 5 tournament swings to offer a significant prize fund, which is guaranteed to have a considerable effect on this year’s top 25 money winners. The tour will visit Springfield, Columbus and Omaha this year and will conclude in Texas at TPC Ranch and will feature a $1m prize fund and a $180k first prize.
