- Byron Nelson will never be forgotten as evidence by this being the 54th golf tournament held in his name. Even though it's been almost 16 years since he passed, his iconic image will never fade.

It was fun to see the man known as Lord Byron, the man Peggy knew as her best friend, pave the way for some of the greatest golfers to follow in his footsteps. Golfers who greatly admired her husband, even though Nelson was never one to seek praise. It seems as though the tournament is just as exciting for Peggy as it is the players."It's always fun to be part of it and when I can contribute and honor Byron at the same time… it's great pleasure for me," she said.
