On behalf of the crew, I am excited to present to the Nest details around our “Queen City 4-Way” event in September. This will be a homecoming of sorts for many of us (Randy for obvious reasons; me/Neil’s mom grew up in Springfield and dad grew up in Cincinnati; Soly’s Ohio connections; Neil’s best friend Ross’ dad led the renovation at Kenwood, etc.) This will be a mix of golf on Friday morning, meet-up at a local brewery on Friday night, all-day hospitality at the LPGA event on Saturday, and optional golf on Sunday for those who want more.
Stoked to be able to get out to Kenwood, support this new event that a brand new title sponsor (Kroger, shoutout @Randy) and presenting sponsor (P&G) have put up a bunch of money to support women’s golf, and cheer on @LPondgolf and hopefully some of our other young hitters. Some of our parents are family friends are planning to be there - this is going to be different than anything we’ve done prior.
Here’s the schedule:
Friday, September 9th
-
18 Holes at Springfield Country Club (Breakfast, Lunch, and beverages) This Donald Ross design hosts US Open Sectional Qualifying every year and features some of the most diabolical greens you will ever play. Put simply, this is one of my favorite golf courses in the world - yes, for sentimental reasons, but also the more places I play the more I appreciate and look forward to returning to Springfield CC. It was the first Ross course I ever played (I think Neil and I got into a fist-fight on the 7th green at one point) and the fact that it hosts Sectionals every year speaks volumes. Well under 7,000 yards and guys have fits with it.
-
Meetup at Madtree Brewery from 6:00 - 9:00 pm
Saturday, September 10th
- All-Day VIP dedicated hospitality at the Kroger Queen City Championship
