Jacob Richard from Clermont won our first tournament at Black Bear on March 4. Kissimmee, FL---The Golfweek Amateur Tour / Orlando opened its 2017 season on March 4 at Black Bear GC in Eustis. Fourteen tournaments are scheduled on some of the finest courses in central Florida. “Last year we played a terrific schedule; this year our lineup is by far our best” said Tom Mirus, Tour director. “We will be taking the tour to some new courses this year including Streamsong Resort for a Florida Regional. We are playing four courses we did not play in 2016. We are excited about the coming season. We averaged over 90 players per tournament last year and had 96 at Black Bear on Opening Day 2017. Courses include Waldorf Astoria Golf Club, Tranquilo Golf Club, Ritz Carlton
Grenad Lakes, ChampionsGate Country Club, and more! We will again qualify fifty players (10 from each of the five flights) for the Golfweek Amateur Tour Championship in October being held on Hilton Head Island, 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 4800. We offer a money back guarantee—if
