The provincial amateur golf governing body will host nine Saskatchewan championships at six different clubs across the province. Manager of Sport Development and Championships Steve Ryde said the players will get a chance to compete at some of the province’s top facilities.
“We are very excited to release our championship schedule for 2020, Ryde said. “Saskatchewan is full of great golf courses and we feel that the venues we chose for the events are among some of the best.”
The Amateur Women’s Championship at The Willows Golf & Country Club will kick the season off, the final tournament will be the ever-popular Mixed Championship at Candle Lake Golf Resort.
