Panama Digicel Championship / Nationwide Tour / February 5-8, 2009
Congratulations to John Riegger (72-68-70-68=278 / -2 / T10) and Neal Lancaster (70-68-70-71= 279 / -1 / T13) on their fine performances in Panama City, Panama.
Most fans don't realize that the Nationwide Tour starts in Panama in mid-February and then heads to Australia (Moonah Classic / Feb 26-March 1) and New Zealand (HSBC New Zealand PGA Championship / March 12-15 and the Michael Hill New Zealand Open / March 12-15).
It's not until March 26 that the Nationwide actually begins in the U.S. (at the Chitimacha Louisiana Open in Broussard, Louisiana).
