From Wiki....The B.C. Open was a PGA Tour golf tournament that was held annually from 1971 to 2006. It took place simultaneously with the British Open during 2000–2006, so the leading players were not available and it was one of the smaller events on the PGA Tour schedule. The purse for 2006 was $3 million.
The tournament was played at the En-Joie Golf Course in Endicott in Upstate New York for its entire history through 2005. In 2006, severe flooding forced the event to move to the Atunyote Golf Club at the Turning Stone Resort & Casino in Verona, New York, where a permanent event has since been awarded. The event was operated by Broome County Community Charities, Inc. Since its inception, the B.C. Open has turned back to local charities in excess of $7.4 million dollars through 2003.
