The Twin Bridges Championship is an annual golf tournament for professional women golfers on the Epson Tour, the LPGA's developmental tour. The event has been played since 1984 and is held in the Albany, New York area.[1]
In 2010 and 2011, the title sponsor was Price Chopper, a chain of supermarkets headquartered in Schenectady, New York. The presenting sponsors in 2012 were SEFCU and Sunmark, credit unions in the Albany area, and Burns-Fazzi, Brock, a credit union benefits consulting company. SEFCU became title sponsor in 2014 and in 2015 Fuccillo Kia with Billy Fuccillo stepped in. In 2019 Capital District Physicians' Health Plan, Inc. (CDPHP) became title sponsor. The venue changed to Pinehaven Country Club and the tournament purse rose to $175,000 in 2021.
The tournament was a 54-hole event, as are most Symetra Tour tournaments, and includes 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.
