This Day in Golf History: December 17

This time of year is known as the Silly Season because of the unusual formats you’d see in pro events. On this date in 1989, it was a mixed team event. Mike Hill and Patti Rizzo shot 25 under par and won the Mazda Champions event at the Hyatt Dorado Beach in Puerto Rico. A typical Silly Season event is being held this weekend with the PNC Championship with generational teams competing.
