The first-ever Galleri Classic in the books which brought some of the greatest golfers and even Hall of Famers to the Coachella Valley.
But there’s a lot of moving parts and hard work behind holding the first PGA Tour Champions event in 30 years, especially for the person in the driver’s seat, Michelle Delancy.
A wire-to-wire win is what locals here in the Coachella Valley got for the first ever Galleri Classic, someone who was familiar with the winners’ circle at nearly every level, David Toms.
The Galleri Classic Director Michelle Delancey, shares how this PGA Tour Champions event will bring light to a very worthy cause that affects everyone.
Blazing towards a new era of professional golf in the Coachella Valley, The Galleri® Classic began to unveil its blueprint in the building the best field that PGA TOUR Champions golf has to offer by announcing its initial playing commitments. Fred Couples, Ernie Els, Jim Furyk and Steve Stricker have all committed to play The Galleri Classic, according to the press release. Named after title sponsor GRAIL’s multi-cancer early detection test, debuts March 22-26 on the Dinah Shore Tournament Course at the renowned Mission Hills Country Club.
The mind behind the Galleri Classic is new to the Coachella Valley but not to kickstarting new events. Michelle Delancy is back in the driver’s seat to get another tournament up on its feet, but this time in our own backyard.
