Greenbrier Classic to Stop Selling Tickets on June 27th

Posted: Updated:
WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS -

The following is a press release from the Greenbrier Classic:

Officials of The Greenbrier Classic announced that tickets sales will be suspended on or before 5:00 p.m., Wednesday, June 27th for the third edition of the reigning "Best in Class Tournament on the PGA TOUR" July 2-8 at The Old White TPC Course at The Greenbrier.

The combination of a new Tournament date, a historically strong field with popular player
commitments such as Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson, and a second to none concert series
featuring Toby Keith, Lionel Richie, Rod Stewart, The Fray and Bon Jovi have created a demand
for tickets that has exceeded expectations. As a result, The Greenbrier Classic will only accept
ticket orders up to 5:00 p.m., Wednesday, June 27th.

"The response for this year's Tournament has been incredible," said Jim Justice, chairman and
owner of The Greenbrier. "While I am so happy and proud we are able to host such a popular
event for the people of West Virginia, I regret that we won't be able to continue ticket sales past June 27th. The Tournament is a wonderful tribute to the Virginias and our beautiful region.
Thank you to all the loyal fans that have purchased tickets to date and I am glad tickets probably will still be available until June 27th. The upcoming days will provide everyone who is interested
in buying tickets the opportunity to do so."

Tickets to all concerts, three practice rounds and pro-ams, and four competition rounds are
available for $189. (Concert tickets are not sold separately.) Benefactor, Alumni, and Clubhouse
Badges, which include upgraded food/beverage and access to the golf tournament as well as
tickets to all concerts, are also available. All badge levels are available for purchase at
www.GreenbrierClassic.com, Ticketmaster, and participating United Bank and Kroger locations.
