The American Express Golf Tickets

Watch your favorite golfers hit the fairway with The American Express tickets. The American Express is a professional golf tournament in Southern California. The event takes place in mid-winter in greater Palm Springs as part of the PGA Tour’s “West Coast Swing.”

The event was founded in 1960 as the Palm Springs Golf Classic and evolved out of the Thunderbird Invitational. From its inception until 2012, the classic was the only event that involved five days of play over four different courses. The event was originally primarily a pro-am event, featuring many celebrities.

A tradition started of having “Classic Girls” chosen from local collegians along with a celebrity dubbed “Classic Queen.” Past Classic Queens include Jill St. John, Debbie Reynolds and Jane Powell. In the seventies, Barbara Eden held the title as well as Wonder Woman star Lynda Carter.

Past celebrities that have been involved include Bing Crosby, Burt Lancaster and Roy Bolger, who played the Scarecrow in The Wizard of Oz. Former President Gerald Ford played in the event in 1977. In 1995, President Bill Clinton teamed up with George H.W. Bush, Gerald Ford, and defending champion Scott Hoch to mark the first time a sitting president had played in a PGA tour event. It was also the first time three presidents had played together.
