Sybase Classic 2008

SYBASE CLASSIC RETURNS TO UPPER MONTCLAIR COUNTRY CLUB MAY 12-18, 2008 For the eighth consecutive year, Sybase is proud to host the Sybase Classic presented by ShopRite. This year’s 19th annual Sybase Classic, one of the premier golf tournaments on the LPGA (Ladies Professional Golf Association) tour, returns to the historic Upper Montclair Country Club in Clifton, N.J., May 12-18, 2008. Lorena Ochoa, 2007 LPGA Player of the Year, will return to the event to defend her title and vie for the largest purse in the history of the Sybase Classic. This year’s tournament purse has increased to a record $2 million—a $600,000 increase over last year’s purse. The Sybase Classic also contributes to local charities in the New York metropolitan area, and in 2007 alone donated more than $1 million. In addition to tournament play, Sybase will also host several activities, social events and business meetings for special guests throughout the week. 2007 PHOTO GALLERY ----------------------------------------- GET YOUR GROUNDS PASS Sybase invites customers to watch the pros "go for the green" at the Sybase Classic.
