A Week of World-Class Golf and Community Fun
From July 15-21, the Tahoe Mountain Club’s Old Greenwood will host the Barracuda Championship, a unique collaboration with the DP World Tour. This event not only showcases incredible golfing talent but also offers a range of activities for attendees. The week kicks off with pro-ams, practice days, and community events, including the much-loved Junior Golf Day. Tournament play officially begins on Thursday, July 18, and courtesy of SFI Health, all children under 15 can attend for free with a ticketed adult.
Exclusive Hospitality and Ticket Options
This year, fans can enjoy the action from the Bushwood Spirits Chalet on the 18th Green. This exclusive hospitality suite offers fantastic views, a catered-style lunch, snacks, and a fine selection of beer, wine, and cocktails. Group ticket bundles are also available, making it easy to share this exciting experience with friends and family.
Exciting Changes to the Course Layout
In an exciting twist, the Barracuda Championship is flipping the nines for the tournament, creating an exhilarating finish with two par 5’s on the back nine and a drivable 17th hole. This change is set to heighten the competition and deliver thrilling moments during the closing stretch of the tournament.
Bike to Barracuda Initiative
Back by popular demand, the Bike to Barracuda initiative offers a green transportation option for fans.
