FRIDAY, JUNE 1, 1990
is Sussman is putting
a new twist on that
old sports adage,
"Those who can't play,
teach."
An admitted high-
handicapper on the golf
links, Sussman is setting
aside his clubs temporarily
to serve as host of a golfing
"party" for those who really
can play — fellows like Jack
Nicklaus, Lee Trevino, Ar-
nold Palmer, Dave and Mike
Hill and Gary Player.
They and 72 other legends
from the professional golfing
world will be at the Dear-
born Country Club June
4-10 for the 1990 Mazda
Senior Tournament Players
Championship.
And what's the former
Flatbush, N.Y., resident's
involvement in all this? He's
the tourney's general
chairman.
"It's a trip, it really is,"
smiled Sussman, director of
environmental control for
Ford Motor Co. in Dearborn
who, as president of Dear-
born CC last year, guided
the club into the host role.
An 18-year resident of
Dearborn and 16-year mem-
ber of the club which began
as Henry Ford's private
stomping grounds, Sussman
and the club's board were
"We got amazing
support all over
Dearborn."
Vic Sussman
approached by the TPC last
July to host the tourney. It
will be only the second in
Senior Tour history to offer a
$1 million purse.
All 78 senior pros will
begin and finish play, said
Sussman. "There are no cuts
in the field." The four
rounds of golf begin June 7,
preceded by a volunteers'
party, nine-hole Shoot-Out
for 10 top pros, a youth clinic
and pro-am event. The
tourney itself will be telecast
by ABC-TV and is expected
to draw 100,000 spectators.
While the television net-
work will contribute its
revenue to the players'
retirement fund, all proceeds
from the tourney itself will
go to metro-Detroit
charities, which will be
selected later, Sussman said.
Dearborn CC is serving as
the break-in course for the
tourney, which is to move
next year to the Nicklaus-
designed Fordland/Tourna-
ment Players Club of
Michigan golf course about a
mile away, Sussman explain-
Vic Sussman:
"No problems."
ed. If that course isn't ready,
Dearborn CC will host the
meet again.
Part of the "break-in" is
the volunteer crew of 800
which has been assembled
under Sussman's leadership
to serve in this and future
tourneys. "We had to de-
velop a volunteer group for
when we move to the new
course," he said.
Sussman was gratified by
the response in Dearborn to
the Mazda TPC. "We got
amazing support all over
Dearborn," he said, noting
there were "FORDearborn"
banners "flying all over
town." And people readily
volunteered to help with the
tourney, of which Ford pres-
ident Harold "Red" Poling is
honorary chairman.
"People are very enthused
and excited to see those
players —especially to see
them make the kinds of
shots that we can't," said
Sussman, who has a 23 han-
dicap.
"We're both lousy
players," he said of himself
and wife Marian, who also
golfs, "but we love the
game." They've played at
courses in Spain, the Canary
Islands — "I even played a
course in Iran in 1970,"
Sussman added.
The Brooklyn, N.Y., na-
tive, who recalls walking to
Dodger baseball games at
Ebbets Field, earned a
chemical engineering degree
from City College of New
York and was hired by Ford.
He admits he "was con-
