-- Proceeds to Benefit Make-A-Wish New Jersey and Other Local Charities-Monroe Township, N.J.In 1973, a record TV audience watched top female tennis player Billie Jean King defeat the iconic chauvinist Bobby Riggs in the famous Battle of the Sexes. Now, nearly 40 years later, the grand stage will move from the tennis court to the golf course as LPGA Star Paula Creamer takes on CBS Sports Commentator Gary McCord in golfs Battle of the Sexes on Oct. 6-7, 2012, at Forsgate Country Club in Monroe. Irreverent Golf Channel star David Feherty will provide live color and analysis of the head-to head, stroke play match, that will feature Creamer and McCord hitting from the same tees on the renowned Banks Course for a purse of $10,000. When I heard I was playing Paula, I thought of advice my dear mom gave me when I was a kid. She told me to always play nice especially with girls.I never listened to mom. Beating Paula will be fun and another win in my already memorable career, said McCord, who, like Riggs, is known as much for his bluster as for his play. McCord boasts a long professional golf career on both the PGA and Champions Tours, and while he may have faced the likes of The Golden Bear and The Shark, McCord has never teed off against The Pink Panther. Im playing against Gary McCord? You mean the CBS golf commentator? I didnt even realize he played golf! Wowyou learn something new every day, said Creamer, an 11-time professional tour winner and 2010 U.S. Womens Open Champion who is currently ranked No. 13 in the world. As for his opinion, Feherty, host of The Golf Channels highly rated show of the same name, put it bluntly: Battle of the Sexes? Its more like Beauty versus the Beast. My money is with Paulathere was a reason McCord was 0 for 422 in PGA Tour Tournament wins. Plus, I love pink. (Gary McCord has enjoyed success on the Champions Tour, winning the first and last events of his 1999 debut seasonthe Toshiba Senior Classic and Ingersoll-Rand Senior Tour Championship.) -more-
