The Tucson Conquistadores Classic continued to score last week with top golfers for its March 20-22 Champions Tour event at Tucson National. Tom LehmanJay Haas and Jesper Parnevik are the latest to commit, joining Bernhard Langer and Colin Montgomerie, among others. It’s encouraging to see Tom Watson in the first Champions Tour event of the season, ongoing in Hawaii. It’s a sign he is likely to join the Tucson field.
