“I am excited to welcome all the players from across Canada and around the world to Saugeen Golf Club,” says Saugeen Golf Club Board President Derek Alstein. “This tournament is such a big and prestigious event in Canadian Golf, and I know our small-town golf club is ready to shine. Whether it’s the players, the hundreds of dedicated member volunteers, or our exceptional Saugeen Golf Club team members, I cannot wait to see the outcome of their hard work and passion for the game of golf.”
When asked who he’s cheering for, Alstein said, “Well, of course, it’s our hometown member favourite, Ron Kerr. Ron knows the course as well as anyone, so it will be exciting to see if local course knowledge can persevere against some of the best amateur players in the world.
Whether it’s to watch the play and walk our beautiful course, or take in the variety of fun offered at GolfFest, I hope to see everyone out over the weekend.”
