Hey, Klinger's Back!

I'm referring of course to Jamie Farr, aka Corporal (later Sergeant) Maxwell Q. Klinger from the old M*A*S*H TV series... and his golf tournament! (For those of you who aren't familiar with M*A*S*H, Klinger was frequently seen in drag. It was part of his plan to get thrown out of the Army. MASH stands for "Mobile Army Surgical Hospital" and the show took place during the Korean War.)

After a yearlong absence, the Jamie Farr Toledo Classic is again on the LPGA's agenda. The event started manner returned in 1984, so this is a protracted-running event. It actually ended its run lower back in 2009 for quite a few reasons, although there had been rumors of a confrontation with then-Commissioner Carolyn Bivens. After her resignation the new Commish, Mike Whan, reached an agreement in 2010 to convey the event lower back in 2012 -- the lapse at some stage in 2011 due to the U.S. Senior Open being played inside the place on the same time because the Farr.

The event has been associated with Jamie Farr considering the fact that its inception and it's been performed on the Highland Meadows Golf Club in Sylvania, Ohio for all but the earliest years. It's additionally a event that Se Ri Pak has gained 5 separate instances! Na Yeon Choi is the protecting champion from 2010.

The domestic page for the tournament -- complete with all sorts of data, mainly because this is a relaunch of this very popular match -- is right right here. And the leaderboard is on this page. (Apparently you will ought to use the leaderboard to maintain up with the rankings considering I cannot discover a TV listing for a printed.) And no, I doubt Jamie Farr will make an appearance in the cute Southern Belle outfit pictured above...

Although I do not recognize why not. It's an LPGA occasion, in the end.

The photo came from Jamie's own site. I guess he really likes yellow.
