The Nashville Chapter of the Amateur Players Tour made its first-ever visit to Manchester, TN and the Willowbrook Golf Club. 97 players travelled and beat the Bonaroo Music Festival traffic to compete for prizes and side game monies totaling over $5,100. The weather was the complete opposite of our last event as there was abundant sunshine and temperatures that ended up in the mid-90s. The early shotgun start to the helped the players to enjoy a bit of time in less heat.
