The Memorial Professional golf competition is a tournament that gets to be played during the Memorial Day weekend. This year it will be played between May 30th - June 5th, 2011.
The competition is attractive to the players because the total purse is around $6 million with a winner share of around $1,080,000. Also, the winner gets a total of 500 FedEx Cup points to the final championship.
Muirfield Village Golf Club was the dream and work of Jack Nicklaus. The land was acquired in 1966, but construction did not begin until July 28, 1972. The golf course is situated on 220 acres, which includes an 11-acre driving range. The course was officially dedicated on Memorial Day, May 27, 1974, with an exhibition match between Nicklaus and Tom Weiskopf. Nicklaus scored a six-under par 66, which stood as the course record until 1979.
