Say it's not so, LPGA: Wendy's Tournament cancelled

The Golf Blog has covered the Wendy's Championship for Children for the past two years. It has been such a treat, with a very strong international field. Last week's tournament was won by Lorena Ochoa and the year before, Cristie Kerr. The sponsors of the tournament treat reporters so very well, even supplying a frostie machine!

So it's with great sadness that we report today that Wendy's has pulled out of the LPGA, allegedly after the LPGA would not agree to continue to allow Wendy's a tournament date in August (see here). What a bummer! The golf tournament helped raise $3 million for childhood cancer research and treatment at Columbus Children's Hospital over the last six years.
