Two North Texas City Golf Divisions Join to Form Trinity River Golf Tour

Press Release The golf divisions of the City of Arlington and City of Fort Worth, Texas have banded together to create the Trinity River Golf Tour, a circuit of tournaments in the two municipalities designed to entice participation of some of the area’s top amateur players while showcasing seven of the cities’ golf courses.
The tour will be conducted at multiple golf facilities, including Fort Worth’s Pecan Valley, Rockwood, Meadowbrook and Z. Boaz golf courses and Arlington’s Tierra Verde, Lake Arlington and Ditto golf courses.

There will be monthly competitions in men’s open, women’s, seniors, juniors and team divisions beginning in April 2010 and concluding with the tour championships in October 2010, with no course played more than once per division.

Competitions will be flighted and limited to 80-100 entrants, depending on the facility used that month in each division. Entry is open to all players in and around the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex. There will be a one-time membership fee of $30 for all players and entry fees of $75 per event entered.

The Trinity River Golf Tour is the brainchild of Phyllis Jordan, the head professional at the City of Arlington’s Lake Arlington Golf Course.

“There has been something missing as far as a series of top-notch tournaments for the amateur golfers in the Arlington and Fort Worth areas,” said Jordan, who has been at Lake Arlington since August 2007. “With these events, we can fill that gap as well as bring golfers to our different courses that might not have played at them for a while. This is a chance to showcase our courses and spur interest in our facilities while providing excellent golf in outstanding conditions.”
