The Broadmoor to Host 2017 Colorado Cup
The Colorado Cup Matches, a mainstay on the Colorado golf schedule every year since 1971, have evolved over time.
Most notably, after the Ryder Cup-style competition between the top amateurs and Colorado PGA professionals in the state was limited to an open division for its first dozen years, it broadened its reach. A senior division was added in 1983 and a women's division in 2002.
But now, the Colorado Cup will undergo changes that make the earlier tweakings pale in comparison.

How the PGA is Trying to Fix Golf's Image
Golf has a reputation for being elitist and resistant to change. Augusta National only accepted women as members in 2012, and one recent report found that the fact of the sport -- overwhelmingly white -- hasn't changed in decades. To broaden golf's appeal, the PGA of America is trying to strengthen the women's game, get more children and adults to lay and hold more big tournaments at public courses, not just at exclusive country clubs.
