Welcome to the 41st Oregon Senior Women’s Amateur Championship, June 19 - 22 at Pumpkin Ridge – Witch Hollow. The Senior Women’s Amateur is run concurrently with the Men’s and Women’s Oregon Amateur, which begins June 17th. Combining these two championships has allowed us to highlight senior women’s golf, culminating a week that celebrates the history and traditions of amateur golf in Oregon. In a year where both the OGA and Oswego Lake celebrate their centennial anniversaries, marks a truly special occasion for this championship. The OGA is extremely grateful to Oswego Lake Country Club for hosting this year’s championship!

 

You will be competing in an 18-hole qualifying in order to determine the low 15 qualifiers for the championship bracket.  There will be a playoff immediately following play on Wednesday in the event of a tie for the last qualifying spot and for medalist.  All other scores will be put in a consolation bracket.  The defending champion, Lara Tennant has agreed to assume the #2 seed in match play.
