“It’s a privilege to be the presenting sponsor for the 2009 LPGA Navistar Classic,” said Kay Toolson, president, Monaco RV. “This is an exciting event that celebrates the exhilaration and enthusiasm of LPGA golf and our sponsorship positions our brand well with fans and followers of the LPGA, many of who may own and operate recreational vehicles.”

A full field of 144 of the world's top women golfers will be competing yet again, as the 2009 Navistar LPGA Classic returns to Prattville for its annual four-day tournament. This is the third year of the tournament and officials have already confirmed that top-rated golfers such as Lorena Ochoa, Natalie Gulbis, Anna Rawson and Se Ri Pak have committed to attend the event.
