Flood Law Attorney Works to Bring PGA Golf Tournament to Detroit
PGA Tour could come to Detroit in fall 2011
Lynn Henning / The Detroit News
Detroit, Michigan’s brief exile from the PGA Tour could be history as Detroit Golf Club negotiates to host a tournament next autumn, with mid-year events being sought from 2012-16.
Todd Flood, past president of the DGC and now a member of the club’s board of directors, confirmed Friday the club is doing due diligence in its attempts to restore the Tour to a state that hasn’t hosted a tournament since the 2009 Buick Open.
Currently, the Detroit Golf Club is doing due diligence with regard to a PGA Tour event for the fall of 2011, said Flood, whose attorney practice is based in Detroit and Royal Oak. We also hope to have a PGA Tour event on a regular basis from 2012 through 2016.
We’re looking at the possibility of the Tour being a regular stop here through those years and we’re doing our diligence on that, as well.
Flood confirmed serious discussions have taken place with a sponsor, whose identity he declined to reveal. (more…)

Detroit –Harvey Malone’s house was burglarized and his SUV was firebombed. He lived in fear and worried the man who had terrorized him for years would return.
The Korean War veteran spent sleepless nights staring out his front window on Detroit’s west side and bought a gun off the street for $75 to protect himself.
One night in January 2008, the man he feared did return to slash the tires of Malone’s new vehicle with a knife.
The elderly man stepped out on his porch, followed the younger man, then lifted the gun and fired as the two men faced each other. “I didn’t have a choice,” Malone said. “He would have killed me.” (more…)
