Hall of Fame
Western Pennsylvania has a lengthy, rich and storied history.
The Western Pennsylvania Golf Association celebrated its centennial in 1999. Part of this celebration was to recognize area golfers and contributors who had an impact on our history. The Western Pennsylvania Golf Hall of Fame was established in 2013 to celebrate this history. The inaugural class consisted of William C. Fownes, Jr., Jock Hutchison, Arnold Palmer, Carol Semple Thompson, and Lew Worsham.
Scholarship Fund
Founded in 1941, over 700 students have received a scholarship.
The Scholarship Fund of the Western Pennsylvania Golf Association was founded in 1941 with the awarding of two scholarships to the University of Pittsburgh and another to Duquesne University. The first Caddie Welfare Committee surfaced in 1927 and addressed issues for the benefit of caddies at the various Member Clubs of the Association. Fourteen years later, the movement secured enough money to sponsor its first scholars.
