The Nashville Chapter of the Amateur Players Tour visited one of our favorite courses on tour, Towhee Golf Club in Spring Hill. 114 players competed in very hot conditions as temperatures hovered in the 90s with a heat index over 100. Not only did players have to battle the tough competition, they also battled staying hydrated and finding as much shade as possible! Over $4,300 in tournament prizes were awarded and over $1,900 paid out in our optional side games.
