Tournament slated for June 20-23 at Uplands
Bring on the Bossa Nova beat as the Beachlands Victoria Open presented by the Times Colonist, June 20-23 at the Uplands Golf Course, will be part of the PGA Tour’s major reconfiguration of its hemispheric minor-pro system.
PGA Tour Canada and PGA Tour Latinoamérica previously each offered five spots into the following season’s Korn Ferry Tour, which is the springboard to the PGA Tour. Those berths will be amalgamated with the new PGA Tour Americas offering a combined 10 spots into the following year’s Korn Ferry Tour. The 2024 PGA Tour Americas season opens with the Bupa Championship in Tulum, Mexico, from March 21-24 and will move from there to the 69th Brazil Open from April 4-7 at Rio Olympic Golf Course, which hosted the 2016 Olympics tournament. The PGA Tour Americas will travel the spring through May 19 to Santiago del Estero, Argentina, the Diners Club Peru Open at Lima, KIA Open in Quito, Ecuador, and the Inter Rapidisimo Championship in Bogota, Colombia.
The North America portion of the PGA Tour Americas goes from Victoria the following week to the ATB Classic at Northern Bear Golf Course near Edmonton. The Canadian portion of the Tour runs through Aug. 25 at the Explore New Brunswick Open, Quebec Open at Bromont, Commissionaires Ottawa Open, Windsor, Ont., Championship, Saskatchewan Open at Waskesiu Lake and Manitoba Open in Winnipeg.
“We had great success graduating players to the PGA Tour and this will accelerate the process and help players get to the PGA Tour quicker,” Pritchard told the Times Colonist.
