2020 Golf Event Guide
Welcome to the 2020 golf season at The Country Club at Loch Lloyd. The Professional Golf Staff has worked diligently this winter to create a fun golf schedule for you this season. Our Majors kick off with The Scotty, May 14th-16th; followed by The Whummle, June 24th-27th. The Club Championships will be separated again this year with the Men’s Gross Championship being contested during the weekend of July 17th-19th and the Club Championships August 1st-2nd. The month of September will host The Brigadoon Classic, September 17th-19th. The 2020 Majors will be wrapped up with the playing of the Gross Match Play Championship, September 25th-27th. Tournaments are a great way to meet new friends and improve your game. We hope everyone plays in as many events as their schedules allow so we may continue to offer the highest quality tournaments.
