Golf Tournament At Rogue Valley Country Club
Golfers from around the country compete annually in the tournament and the 18-hole bracket play matches start this Thursday. 416 golfers are working towards admission into the weekend’s flights for bracket play this year. On Labour Day, the tournament culminates in the championship round.
The head golf pro at the Rogue Valley Country Club, Tracy Snyder, confirmed the tournament is the highlight of the year for many players who look forward to going outside, and playing with or caddying for their friends.
There is also a social side with parties to attend and participants get to see people they haven’t seen all year long- all a big thing with this event according to Snyder.
Other than the tournament itself, there are daily cocktail after-parties- with a DJ on Wednesday and Thursday, a live band on Friday, and on Saturday there will be a putting contest.
