BREAKING NEWS: Western Golf Association Chairman John Fix talked to The Beacon News a short while ago about Rich Harvest Farms (Sugar Grove) being part of the seven-year rotation for the Western Amateur...

"We held one of our junior events there, the Western Junior, and of course the Solheim Cup is going to be there (in 2009) and he's had some other things there. I think in (Jerry Rich's) mind, this is good for the Chicagoland area, it's good for the Western part of Chicago, and the Western suburbs. A lot of play comes to Medinah and Olympia Fields and these other major courses that have been very active in the PGA and the USGA and I think this gives him an opportunity, and the people that you have circulation-wise, an opportunity to see some really wonderful golf and some wonderful players."

A complete story will be available in tomorrow's Beacon News...
