The PGA TOUR moves to White Sulphur Springs in the Allegheny Mountains of West Virginia this week for the inaugural GREENBRIER CLASSIC. CBS Sports will be on hand with third- and final-round coverage of the Greenbrier Classic from the venerable Old White course on Saturday, July 31 and Sunday, Aug. 1 (3:00-6:00 PM, ET, both days), live on the CBS Television Network.
Jim Nantz, the 2009 Emmy Award Winner for “Outstanding Sports Personality – Play-by-Play” and 2009 National Sportscaster of the Year, serves as anchor of CBS Sports’ golf coverage.

The Greenbrier is an award-winning resort and a National Historic Landmark in the picturesque Allegheny Mountains.

In addition, funds raised through the Greenbrier Classic will be donated to the families through the West Virginia Council of Churches. Other players with local ties include J.B.
