WTA and ATP alumni tee off at Indian Wells golf outing
INDIAN WELLS, Calif. -- 1979 Australian Open doubles champion Barbara Jordan was among the former stars who took part in the ATP & WTA Alumni Golf Tournament earlier this month during the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells.
Jordan was joined by fellow WTA alumni Debbie Graham Shaffer, Heather Ludloff, Tara Snyder, Robin Archibald, Lea Antonoplis Inouye and Anna Maria Ruffels for the annual outing, which brings together former players from both tours for a day of friendly competition and amity.
Held during the tournament’s middle weekend, the golf event has become a popular tradition at the BNP Paribas Open, giving alumni the opportunity to reconnect and enjoy time together away from the courts in Tennis Paradise.
Below are the results from the tournament.
