By Brian Weis

The Senior LPGA Championship will return to the Pete Dye Course at French Lick in 2018, and this time with a fall flair. The 2018 tournament is set for Oct. 15 to 17, after the inaugural tournament was contested in early July of 2017.

This will be the second year of a five-year agreement to play the Senior LPGA Championship at the majestic Pete Dye Course, which overlooks French Lick Resort in the rolling countryside of southern Indiana. The tournament will again have a national audience in being televised on the Golf Channel, which is among several benefits that have come from women's golf obtaining a major championship for senior players.

All of his life, Brian has been around the game of golf. As a youngster, Brian competed at all levels in junior and high school golf. Brian had a zero chance for a college golf scholarship, so he worked on the grounds crew at West Bend Country Club to pay for his University of Wisconsin education. In his adult years, his passion for the game collided with his entrepreneurial spirit and in 2004 launched GolfWisconsin.com. In 2007, the idea for a network of local golf directory sites formed and GolfTrips.com was born. Today, the network consists of a site in all 50 states supported by national sites like GolfTrips.com, GolfGuide.com and GolfPackages.com. It is an understatement to say, Brian is passionate about promoting golf and golf travel on a local, regional, national and international level.

On the golf course, Brian is known as a fierce weekend warrior that fluctuates between a 5-9 handicap. With a soft fade, known as "The Weis Slice", and booming 300+ drives, he can blast it out of bounds with the best of them.
