Golf Rescheduled

The inaugural Betsy King Celebrity Invitational has been rescheduled for June 21, 2010, to allow sponsors more time to budget for the event, the event organizers said Wednesday.

The golf outing at Berkleigh Golf Club near Kutztown was set to start Aug. 28.

"Our sponsors are very excited about this event, but have been facing business challenges this year," King, a Reading native, said in a statement.

Postponing the event will allow King, a member of the World Golf Hall of Fame, to contact more celebrities, organizers said. She also plans to invite LGPA Tour members, as well, to the spring event.

Select LGPA members weren't able to participate in the event had it be held in August because of a Tour event in Oregon that week.
