The LPGA Tour's Dana Open is a professional golf tournament for women that was created in 1984; however, the event has had several names over the years, mainly due to sponsorship reasons; the original 1984 event was known as the Jamie Farr Toledo Classic. It is held at the Highland Meadows Golf Club in Sylvania, Ohio, in the United States.
The tournament was the brainchild of Toledo native and PGA Tour caddie Judd Silverman, who wanted to see a women's professional golf event held in his hometown. After he reached out to sponsors, Toledo-born actor Jamie Farr introduced his name and a few of his friends to the event. Further, the tournament's philanthropic beneficiaries have always been children's charities in Northwest Ohio and Southern Michigan.
