Almaden Open

The Almaden Open was a golf tournament that began at the Almaden Country Club in San Jose, California in 1958, mostly with local pros. It became a PGA Tour event, the Almaden Open Invitational, in 1961 and was played until 1965. After the 1965 event, the course underwent a major overhaul for several years. In 1968, a decision was made by the new owners not to continue the tournament.cite web | title=A Place of Champions | publisher=Northern California Golf Association | url=http://www.ncga.org/2006/01/01/a-place-of-champions | accessdate=2007-11-03]
