The launch of the U.S. Putting Tour's golf blog provides golfers with the latest news on the USPT and observations and opinions from the USPT's founder, Jim Hartley.
Mr. Hartley is the author of Smart Golf with Hale Irwin and an accomplished amateur golfer in his own right. The USPT blog gives Mr. Hartley an opportunity to share his thoughts and golf advice with amateur golfers, whether they are participants in the U.S. Putting Tour or not.
"Primarily, the USPT blog is a vehicle to inform golfers of the latest news on the U.S. Putting Tour," said Mr. Hartley. "For example, we will post information on scheduled USPT local qualifying events around the country, as well as news on the USPT National Championship."
Individuals and clubs that host local qualifying events simply have to email information on their tournament to info@usputtingtour.com and the USPT will publish the date and location in its blog.
Similarly, the blog will contain news on the national
putting tournament scheduled for September 2011, on the
golf business opportunity available to individuals wanting to run local USPT events, and on
golf sponsorship developments for the USPT.
Information on the golf blog and on the USPT can be found at the USPT website.
