Iowa Open + Blue Ridge Top

Blue Top Ridge and Iowa Open

Contract Through 2022 The Iowa PGA is proud to announce a new three-year contract with Blue Top Ridge and Riverside Casino and Golf Resort to host the Iowa Open through 2022. Blue Top Ridge has played host to the Iowa Open since 2017.

Blue Top Ridge was designed by renowned architect of championship golf courses, Rees Jones. Blue Top Ridge combines everything that is expected of a championship golf course in the Midwest. Playing over 7,500 yards, Blue Top Ridge is rated by the USGA as the most difficult golf course in the state of Iowa. The scenic course lends itself to spectators with ample space for them to move around the golf course freely while combining great golf with great views.

The 54-Hole Championship, is open to Professionals and Amateurs alike with a full field of 144 players and will be played on July 30-August 1, 2021. There will be both an open and senior divisions with the winner of the open division taking home $25,000 (based on full-field of 144 players). The field is made up of players from all over Iowa as well as 10-15 different states.

We wish to thank owners Dan and Bobby Kehl along with Director of Golf Bryan Haas for their dedication in hosting the Iowa Open through 2022.

Started in 1927, the Iowa Open has been a Midwest golf championship with a long list of winners and participants that have shaped the game both in Iowa and around the country.

Most famously, Zach Johnson is a 2-time winner of the event. Players like Labron Harris, Ken Schall, Curt Schnell, JD Turner, Mike McCoy, Mike Bender, Mark Egly and Sean McCarty are all past winners as well. Administered by the Iowa PGA Section, the championship continues this long history of quality golf in the state of Iowa.

Jim Hasley

Jim “Papa” Hasley The Iowa Golf Hall of Famer Jim “Papa” Hasley passed away on Monday, May 31, 2021.

Hasley started doing baseball at a young age but found another sport that he fell in love with. He was a light in the room when you walk into and he would always make you feel special.

Hasley spent most of his golf career as Head Golf Professional at Emeis Golf Course in Davenport, Iowa. He left Emeis back in 2001, instead took over Red Hawk Golf adn Learning Center for the city and helped establish the First Tee of the Quad-Cities chapter there.

Career Highlights • Iowa Section PGA Professional of the Year: 1985 and 2001 • Head Professional of Emeis Golf Course for over 30 years • Iowa Golf Association Professional of the Year: 1985 • Program Director for the First Tee of the Quad Cities since 2001 • “The Hasley Cup Matches” are named in his honor for the influence he has had in the Quad City area • Iowa Section PGA Junior Golf Leader of the Year: 2003 Our thoughts and prayers are with the Hasley Family and friends.

Above Picture taken by Leo Hejda: The year was 2017 at Red Hawk GC in north Davenport. Leo was there to provide 30 dozen USGA test golf balls for his First Tee program. He had all his awards out waiting for the newspaper sports writer to come by to write an article about him. Leo climbed up on a chair and took this picture of Jim with his awards. www.iowapga.com 11

Moving in the Right Direction With the 2021 golf season well underway, it seems as though golf has kept moving in the right direction. Coming off the heels of last year’s unexpected boom due to the coronavirus pandemic, courses are as busy as ever and people seem to be excited to get out and play.

We are seeing it in our entry numbers as we have had waitlists in our Iowa Mid-Amateur, IGA Match Play, IGA Women’s Match Play, and Iowa Amateur. Having a waitlist at the Iowa Mid-Amateur and Women’s Match Play is a first for us.

I think the opportunity the game of golf had last year when it was, in some respects, “the only game in town” drove so many golfers to come out of hibernation that it sparked an interest in getting back into competitive golf. That is great for the IGA, but also great for golf courses around the state.

keep kids coming back in the future, but as they tell their friends about it that could drive future entries. We will see how it goes, but we hope that everyone finds it as an attempt to try something new and nothing more than that.

With that being said, I hope that all of you continue to think of new and exciting ideas to grow the game and keep it fun.

If you have any great ideas that you want to share, we would love to hear from you. In the It is exciting to see, but it will probably meantime, best of luck with the require us to do a bit of rethinking on how rest of the season and never we operate a few of our more popular hesitate to contact us with any events.

We need to continue to try things to keep younger people engaged with the game and making things fun for not just beginners, but everyone.

Ultimately, that’s the key. I don’t know much, but I do know that if something isn’t fun, people are not going to keep choosing to do it or spend their discretionary income on it.

John Deere Classic - Celebrate Its 50th

JOHN DEERE CLASSIC TO CELEBRATE ITS 50TH...

Barry Cronin Cronin Communications, Inc. 847-867-3032 (mobile) bcronin@cronincommunications.com A year after it was sidelined by the pandemic, the John Deere Classic will be back in a big way this month and marking the 50th tournament since its inception in 1971.

The excitement is palpable all around the Quad Cities, according to tournament officials.

“There’s a real energy in town as we approach this year’s event,” said John Deere Classic tournament director Clair Peterson. “There was real sadness last year, not having the tournament, but in light of the health issues at the time, it was the right decision…The only alternative was to have the event with no fans, and no one felt like that matched up with what people here in town wanted to have happen.”

Especially when they would have essentially been throwing a 50th birthday party with no one being able to come to the party.

Fans will be back this year and tickets are on sale via johndeereclassic.com for the tournament scheduled for July 7-11 at TPC Deere Run in Silvis, Illinois.

This year, fond memories will be celebrated. Steve Stricker’s three-peat in 2009, ’10 and ’11. The loyalty and leadership of Cedar Rapids’ own Zach Johnson, the 2012 champion and winner of both the Masters and British Open. The 26 Iowa PGA Golf Magazine - Summer Issue

excitement of a 19-year-old Jordan Spieth’s maiden PGA Tour victory in 2013 and another in 2015. And the 2017 victory by Bryson DeChambeau a few years before he became the PGA Tour’s Incredible Bulk. All have been etched into golf’s collective consciousness thanks to the Quad Cities-based tournament the title sponsorship of which Deere assumed in 1998.

Of course, the present tense will matter most to this year’s 156 contestants, most notably 2019 champion Dylan Frittelli, who has held his crown longer than anyone in John Deere Classic (JDC) history. The 31-year-old South African who played his college golf alongside Spieth at Texas is looking forward finally to have the opportunity to defend his title, especially now that fans are back. He said he loves the community feel of the tournament, which he first learned about as a youngster growing up in Johannesburg.

“I didn’t even know what a John Deere tractor was,” Frittelli said. “I guess at the time in the early or late ‘90s we didn’t have too many of those. But now I know exactly what it is, having watched the tournament through my teens and getting to the States, obviously, and hearing country songs and hearing people mention it. The brand itself is obviously huge.”

John Deere Classic - Celebrate Its 50th As he did in 2019, Frittelli plans to stay with a local family rather than a hotel like the vast majority of players. Those personal accommodations only served to intensify the already strong community feel, according to Frittelli. This year, unlike 2019, he might even go out to dinner.

“I was actually scared to go out for, like, lunch or dinner in the town because I felt like I was probably going to get hounded by local people,” he said of his 2019 experience. “I just felt, like, if I went out, I was going to be mobbed by some kind of paparazzi or something. I know that’s a little bit crazy to think of but…especially when I started doing well, I figured people were going to recognize me…Hopefully this year I can get out and see more of the town and try to experience the community a bit more.”

Frittelli will be joined by other past champions, including Johnson and Stricker, who is skipping the U.S. Senior Open to be in the JDC field. Sean O’Hair (2005), John Senden (2006), Jonathan Byrd (2007), Brian Harman (2014), Ryan Moore (2016) and Michael Kim (2018) will all be on hand.

So will Russell Henley, who recently topped the leaderboard at the U.S. Open for the first three rounds at Torrey Pines Golf Course in San Diego before finishing T-13. Other U.S. Open contestants in the field are Kevin Streelman of Wheaton, Illinois (T-13), former Iowa State golfer and Indiana native Chris Baker (T-26, his best finish of the season), 2017 runner up and native Hoosier Patrick Rodgers (T-31), Chez Reavie (T-40) and Troy Merritt, a native of Osage, Iowa, who finished T-65 at the Open.

Some of the tournament’s international flavor will be provided by Korea’s Sungjae Im, who finished T-35 at the Open, Rafa Cabrera Bello of Spain (T-50), Venezuela’s Jhonattan Vegas (T-57) and Argentinian Fabian Gomez (T-70).

“We can’t wait to see our fans again,” said Peterson, noting that last year’s JDC helped raise $12.2 million for charity even though it didn’t happen. The tournament has raised $133 million over its history, 99 percent of it since Deere took over the sponsorship.

This year’s Wednesday pro-am will feature a new and different element. Normally, the defending champion plays in a group headed by the CEO of John Deere. Not this year. Instead CEO John May won’t be playing, he’ll be caddying for one of Deere’s essential workers who won a contest in which she explained why she wanted to play in the pro-am.

“It’s a wonderful gesture, for sure, and it speaks to the character of John Deere,” Peterson said. “Hardworking, down-toearth, let’s get it done [attitude].”

Players, staff, volunteers and service providers will be getting it done once again, as the John Deere Classic returns to the Quad Cities sports calendar. ### Pictured to Right: Dylan Frittelli
