The Minnehaha County Country Club in Sioux Falls is once again gearing up for another year of the Sanford International PGA Tour Champions event.

Back in the year 1950, a group of female golfers came together to form the Ladies Pro Golf Association (LPGA), which still exists to this day. What you may not know is that two of the founders were from Eureka, South Dakota – sisters Marlene (Bauer) Hagge and Alice Bauer.

Aberdeen played host to the Girls Class A tournament, which witnessed a familiar individual standing atop the podium at the end of the event – Payson Birkeland of Belle Fourche. Birkeland technically placed second last year, but a technicality bumped her up to first. This year, she was out to prove that she truly is deserving of such an achievement

​Sioux Falls O'Gorman, West Central, Burke, and James Valley Christian claimed state championships in golf on Tuesday. Here are the final results, which includes the team standings for each class, along with all of the individual results.
