The Instinet Classic was a golf tournament on the Champions Tour from 1985 to 2002. It was played in several different cities in Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
One of the threesomes during the final round of the 1998 tournament was Lee Elder, Jim Dent and Jim Thorpe. It is believed that this was probably the first time a playing group in a PGA Tour or Champions Tour was composed of African-American golfers.[1]
The purse for the 2002 tournament was US$1,500,000, with $225,000 going to the winner. The tournament was founded in 1985 as the United Hospitals Senior Golf Championship.
