Riber Led Cincinnati LPGA Championship Success
Riber who directed eight PGA and LPGA tournaments in nine years recalls initial doubts from peers about drawing crowds. The Kings Island Nicklaus course hosted a successful LPGA championship after Taft Broadcasting backed the move from PGA events, with NBC coverage and a June date boosting visibility. Riber credits Trevino and Taft for convincing leadership to switch to the LPGA, a decision he says yielded greater success than a men’s event.
