The LPGA fumbled the ball today by not covering Lydia Ko’s run at the 2nd ever 59. @GolfweekNichols called them out, rightfully so.
And although it still sucks, this is a great response from Chad Coleman, new Chief Marketing officer.
No BS, no excuses, just a promise they will try to get better.
This news is for the people of Portland to celebrate! Its namesake is now the highest ranked university in all of Oregon, Washington, Idaho & Montana. Congratulations to President Robert Kelly, his team, the Holy Cross order, University faculty and benefactors for achieving this.

The Women’s Leadership Summit is a key part of @PortlandClassic weekend. Last week, we heard from leaders from @TheSportsBraPDX@PortlandGeneral and more, who shared how they continue to make strides for women in business. Watch the recap here: https://t.co/e6jFzmUt9n
Randy Curtis was a man in full: a pioneer and giant in the field of palliative medicine, and a wonderful husband, father and friend. I am so lucky our paths crossed several years ago and I had the opportunity to work with, learn from, and get to know him. May he rest in peace.
It is with sadness that we share the loss of our friend and colleague Dr. J. Randall Curtis. @JRandallCurtis1 was not only a revered physician and researcher @uwpccm but also an inspirational mentor to many throughout his career. Please join us in remembering his legacy.
@Marina_Deee Love the idea, @Marina_Deee! I hope it happens soon. A closer and more equitable partnership between the @PGATOUR and the @LPGA could and hopefully will be one of the silver lining outcomes of the LIV situation. Long overdue.
@tedwheeler@LPGA@PortlandClassic Thank you for acknowledging and expressing support for this 51 year Portland community event, Mayor Wheeler. There is no other city in the U.S. that has shown such steadfast and long term support for women’s professional golf. #portlandproud
This is what a what a professional golf event can be for a community. This is what the LPGA @PortlandClassic has been for 50+ years in Portland. Other golf tournaments have come and gone. It has lasted because it supports Portland and Portlanders have embraced what it stands for
Since 1972, we have been committed to our incredible local community. We are proud to announce that from today until July 3, proceeds from all ticket sales will be donated to charity as we continue to strive to be the most inspirational and inclusive sports event in Portland.
Thank you,@cowcook57, for the fun interview. Looking forward to welcoming many of the world’s best golfers to Portland for the 51st consecutive year of the AmazingCre @PortlandClassic, an authentic Portland nonprofit community-focused event which has raised over $18M for charity
