LPGA Tour settles Jane Blalock lawsuit

[edit]
Main article:Jane Blalock cheating controversy

The LPGA Tour dropped its appeal and made settlement[2] in the lawsuitJane Blalock filed against the Tour after they suspended her for one year[3] due to cheating allegations that began at the 1972Bluegrass Invitational where Blalock was disqualified.[4] Blalock, with the help of a court order, was allowed to continue playing LPGA tournaments while her suit was being resolved.[5] In August 1974, a court had ruled in favor of Blalock and awarded her $4,500 in damages.[6] Those damages were subsequently tripled in March 1975. The LPGA was also ordered to pay Blalock's legal fees, which totaled $95,303.[7]

After settling with Blalock, the LPGA Tour adopted a formal organization which included having a commissioner.[8]
