  • Overall Champion
  • Amateur Champion
  • Amateur Masters Champion (40+ years)
  • Amateur Senior Champion (55+ years)
  • Top Professional
  • Top Club Professional
  • Top “Champions” Professional (45+ years)

PROFESSIONAL PURSE: $10,000
(based on full field)

o THREE DIVISIONS:

Open Division: Both Tour players and Club Professionals are eligible for “Open Division” purse.
     • Top 5 players paid out*

PGA Club Professional Division: Top 2 Club Professionals not already placing in the top 5 of the Open Division will be guaranteed a payout*

“Champions” Division (45+ years old)
     • Will compete separately from the Open Division & Club Pro Division, from a tee-length approximately 10% shorter. The top 25% of “Champions” Division will be paid out.

*Top 5 Payouts in Open Division and Top 2 payouts in Club Pro Division assume full field of 24 Pros.

NOTE: A PGA Club Professional has the opportunity to win the higher of the two eligible cheques from the Open Division and the PGA Club Pro Division.

For Example, if the top PGA Professional finishes 1st or 2nd Overall, they would win the higher place cheque from the Open Purse (but would not also win the top Club Pro cheque). The top Club Pro cheque will go to the next best PGA Club Professional not earning a higher value cheque in the Open Division purse.

NOTE: A “PGA Club Professional” is a member of the PGA of Canada in good standing and is adhering to the industry guidelines around full-time employment during the 2023 calendar year.
