AMGA Golf Classic
This annual event will be hosted at the English Turn, New Orleans’ premier 18-hole PGA Tour stop, designed by Jack Nicklaus and home of the 2006 Zurich Classic PGA Tournament. The highly manicured greens, meandering lakes, and magnificent plantation-style clubhouse make golfing at English Turn a matchless experience. Each English Turn hole has its own personality. The greens are notoriously undulating, challenging yet fair for the club member and pros alike. The famed 18th hole at English Turn has been consistently rated one of the most challenging on the PGA Tour.
