Mulligan Tour preps for 9th year
Southeast Michigan’s premiere recreational golf league is preparing for it’s 9th year. The 2007 Mulligan Tour schedule includes 25 regular season tournaments and 3 post season invitationals. There are a few new events making their debut in ’07. The inaugural MT Ladies Open is in the planning stages and will determine the “Lady Champion of the Year” while the guys play for “low male honors”. The tentative date for the new event is August 25th and the tournament is hoping for a charity tie-in, possibly with the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation through the www.rallyforacure.com website. In an effort to increase female membership, the Tour is marking the 2007 season as “Ladies Year” and is offering free 2007 memberships for all ladies.
Of the existing tournaments, there are some changes in the works. The Match Play Championship will conclude in a single weekend as the event plays a Friday / Saturday / Sunday finish in July. Previous Match Play Championships were contested over consecutive weekends taking 9 days from start to finish. Now the major championship will take only 3 days with the first round scheduled for Friday afternoon, the 2nd round on Saturday, and the semi-finals and finals concluding on Sunday.
The Commissioner’s Cup is planning for a Sunday-Monday competition on September 23rd and 24th taking advantage of a nice package offered by Manistee National GC. Eligible players can participate in the Mulligan Tour’s version of the “Ryder Cup” for $150 which includes the 3 rounds of golf, 1 nights lodging, 1 lunch, and team hats and shirts.
The season-ending TOUR Championship will take the Tour’s leading money winner’s to Frankenmuth, Michigan to play the Fortress GC in early October.
