Florida Cup
Every year one of Florida’s ASGA chapters hosts THE FLORIDA CUP. The September 2022 event was hosted by The Sarasota Chapter at the Streamsong Resort in Bowling Green, Florida. There were two tournaments each day: the Florida Cup competition and the scramble/shamble. Three Florida chapters of ASGA competed in the tournament with a 6 man and 6 woman team. All other golfers played in a scramble/shamble format each day for prizes in a mixed chapter foursome.
The Villages chapter won! (See more pictures on the photo page.)
The Florida Cup play between the chapters has been suspended for the indefinite future.
