Mendon Golf Club Hosting 2016 RDGA Senior Championship on Aug. 24-25

The always beautifully-maintained Mendon Golf Club will host the 2016 RDGA Senior Championship on August 24-25. Registration Closes on August 18.

One of the Rochester area’s best kept secrets – the beautifully-maintained Mendon Golf Club – hosts the 2016 RDGA Senior Championship on Wednesday and Thursday, August 24 and 25.

One of the longest-running annual championships on the RDGA calendar, the RDGA Senior Championship is a two-day, 36-hole stroke play championship open to all amateur male golfers age 55 and over (as of the beginning of each year’s competition) who are members in good standing at an RDGA club. All contestants must have a RDGA/USGA Handicap Index supplied by the RDGA.

There are four separate age divisions in which RDGA Senior Championship contestants will be competing: Seniors (ages 55 to 59), Super Senior (ages 60 to 64), Masters (ages 65 to 69), and Legends (ages 70-plus). The Seniors and Super Seniors will be playing from the Blue Tees (6,645 yards), while the Masters will play from the White Tees (6,369 yards), and the Legends will play from the Gold Tees (5,707 yards). The overall 2015 RDGA Senior Champion will be the low scorer among Senior and Super Senior competitors.

The $135 entry fee for this RDGA major championship includes:

  • 36 Holes of golf on one of the Rochester area’s top private golf clubs
  • Use of the practice facilities and golf cart each day
  • Lunch each day
  • An outstanding tee gift
  • Prizes to the top finishers in each division
  • An hors d’oeuvre reception following the final round – guests of the contestants are welcome!

In addition to prizes and trophies for the overall Senior champion and runner-up, the top three overall finishers playing from the Blue Tees (Seniors and Super Seniors) will receive exemptions into the 2017 RDGA District Championship John H. Ryan Memorial!
