Tournament Champions
The Amateur Players Tour Columbus Chapter returned to action on Monday, July 13, 2026, as 41 golfers battled temperatures in the upper 80s at the beautiful Heritage Golf Club in Hilliard, Ohio.
Established in 1994, Heritage Golf Club was designed by legendary architect P.B. Dye in the famous Dye tradition of illusion and deception. The layout features undulating bent grass greens, signature railroad ties, sparkling lakes, winding fairways, and towering trees, making it one of Central Ohio’s premier private golf experiences. The course was presented in outstanding condition and received rave reviews from the competitors.
