WHERE IS THIS TOURNAMENT GOING ?..WILL THE WESTERN AMATEUR FOLLOW
THE BMW CHAMPIONSHIP OUT OF TOWN.

After a great week at Northshore Country Club for the 109th Western Amateur,
one report in the Global Golf Post has the 2013 Western Amateur headed to
Arkansas and the Alotion Club. Which would mean that Olympia Fields Country
Club (OFCC) would be losing out.

OR WOULD IT..maybe the path is being cleared for OFCC to host the 2013
BMW Championship. The Gog Blog Speaks Out will have more on this come
Monday. Stay Tuned....

MONDAY 6 PM IS TEE-TIME FOR Golfers on Golf Radio on AM-1530 WJJG.
Or listen live at www.wjjgam1530.com. Greg Fagan of Golf Source joins the
guys at 6:30 other guests are in the planning stages.

THOSE FOLKS AT THE WGA...do have another Monday after majors promotion
coming up tomorrow on tickets for the BMW Championship Sept. 12-18 at
Cog Hill. An extra discount would have been in line if Tiger Woods, Dustin
Johnson or Camillo Villegas past BMW Champions had placed in the top
10 at the PGA this week but, all three missed the cut.

Regardless, any day clubhouse tickets will be sold at $39, a savings of
$16 dollars off the onsite price. The WGA will have people on Monday
on the phones for all 24 hours to take orders. (847)-724-4600. This is
the last major and last chance for this discount. On line fans can visit
