Team WLF.org Golf Classic
Team WLF.org Golf Classic was an annual golf tournament for professional women golfers on the Futures Tour, the LPGA Tour's developmental tour. The event was played from 2005 through 2007 at the Kankakee Elks Country Club in the Kankakee, Illinois area.
The title sponsor from 2006 was the World Leadership Foundation (WLF), an international Christian-based training ministry.
The tournament was a 54-hole event, as are most Futures Tour tournaments, and included pre-tournament pro-am opportunities, in which local amateur golfers can play with the professional golfers from the Tour as a benefit for local charities. The benefiting charity from this tournament is the WLF.
