Welsh Golf Classic
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Welsh Golf Classic was a European Tour golf tournament that was held annually from 1979 to 1982. The inaugural event was held at Wenvoe Castle Golg Club near Cardiff and the other three stagings took place at Royal Porthcawl Golf Club in Mid Glamorgan. The most notable winner was future two-time major championship winner Sandy Lyle. In 1982 the prize fund was £49,609, which was one of the smaller purses on the tour that year.
