Golf Manitoba Director of Competitions & Rules David Borowski announced today the 2024 Diamond Athletic Men’s Mid-Amateur & Women’s Amateur will be held July 4th to 6th at the Minnedosa Golf & Country Club.
“This will be the first major championship our course has the privilege of hosting in over a decade” said Minnedosa General Manager & PGA of Canada Head Golf Professional Patrick Law. “Led by Superintendent Dan Bailey, I know our course will be in terrific condition and a true test to all of the competitors. The town of Minnedosa and surrounding area will benefit from having everyone here that week.”
The 54 hole championship was scheduled to be hosted at the Neepawa Golf & Country Club however due to a delay in irrigation renovations this decision was made.
“While it is disappointing not to host this year’s championship, we believe it is best for everyone involved” said Neepawa General Manager & PGA of Canada Head Golf Professional Landon Cameron. “We look forward to having the province’s best return to Neepawa in the near future for exciting competition like we saw in 2021 during the Nott Autocorp Men’s Amateur won by Braxton Kuntz on the 18th hole of the final round.”
“I would like to thank Landon and Patrick for their quick action in this situation” said Borowski. “When Landon reached out to say it was best to focus on another year to host, Patrick immediately opened his doors to us. We look forward to returning to Neepawa in the future.”
The Minnedosa Golf & Country Club recently hosted the 2022 Men’s Senior Four-Ball Championship and 2016 Nott Autocorp Men’s Amateur Qualifier.
