Milwaukee Open Invitational
The Milwaukee Open Invitational was a golf tournament on the PGA Tour, played between 1955 and 1961. It was played on several golf courses in the Milwaukee, Wisconsin area. During its final year, Arnold Palmer skipped the tournament[1] in order to prepare for the British Open; however, it did have Jack Nicklaus in the field, who was still an amateur at the time.[2]
