The breakdown between pros and amateurs is not quite how they pictured it, though. A partial overlap with the LPGA Tour Qualifying Tournament apparently has kept some out-of-state pros from coming to East Bay Golf Course for the 36-hole event, scheduled Saturday and Sunday.
A field of 11 pros, including some recent collegians and members of the Utah Section PGA, will join 28 amateurs. “We’ve got to start somewhere,” said Devin Dehlin, the section’s executive director.
The pros will play for a first prize of $3,000, with Siegfried & Jensen as the title sponsor and Fairways Media as the presenting sponsor.
