PrintThe 2009 Samsung World Championship will be played on Torrey Pines' famed South Course in September, the LPGA announced today. The press release does not mention whether this is a one-time deal or a multi-year agreement, so I would assume the former.
First St. Andrews, now Torrey Pines, what's next? Oakmont? Augusta National? I'm getting giddy at the thought of it all...
UPDATE: Ryan at Waggle Room pointed out that Oakmont is the site for next year's U.S. Women's Open. Don't know how I missed that one. Maybe my Augusta dream isn't so crazy after all.

There’s an option to re-up for 2010:

Hopefully Samsung will decide to keep sponsoring the event.

Oakmont
It’s also not the first time the women will play Oakmont — Patty Sheehan outlasted Juli Inkster in an 18 hole playoff in 1992.
