2025 KY/OH TPC River’s Bend Golf Course Tournament Results

Amateur Players Tour Hosts Championship Event at TPC River’s Bend 

The Cincinnati / Columbus / Kentucky Amateur Players Tour proudly hosted a marquee event at TPC River’s Bend in Maineville, Ohio — a par-72 championship-caliber course that will serve as the host venue for the Kroger Queen City Championship LPGA event this coming September. Known for its lush fairways and challenging thick rough, the course provided a true test of skill for competitors. 

Tour Directors Kasey Dickenson and Danny Bay shared their excitement: 

“Anytime we can get our players on a Championship Course and get beautiful weather to go with it, it’s a great win for everyone.” 

The event drew players from nine different states, showcasing the tour’s growing reach and competitive spirit.
