2019 SEASON OPENS AT BLACK BEAR ON MARCH 2
FLORIDA REGIONAL @ INNISBROOK FIRST OF 3 MAJORS IN 2019
The Golfweek Amateur Tour / Orlando will open its 2018 season on March 2 at Black Bear GC in Eustis. Fifteen tournaments are scheduled on some of the finest courses in central Florida. “Last year we played a terrific schedule; this year our lineup is every bit as good” said Tom Mirus, Tour director. “We will be taking the tour to some new courses this year including six courses we did not play in 2018. We are excited about the coming season. Our three majors are on courses we did not play last year--the Florida Regional @ Innisbrook, the Bob Mirus Memorial @ Grand Cypress Resort, and the Players Championship @ PGA Golf Club (Port St. Lucie).
We will again qualify fifty players (10 from each of the five flights) for the Golfweek Amateur Tour Championship in October being held in Hilton Head, SC. The players that made the trip last year loved it. I am sure competition for the invitations will be strong again this year. And, our players compete for nearly $50,000 in prizes each year.”
The Golfweek Amateur Tour / Orlando is the first Florida affiliate of the Golfweek Amateur Tour. There are local tours operating in over 40 markets with nationwide membership exceeding 5000.
