About the tournament

Team matches between the Kentucky Golf Association and the Kentucky PGA. This event is currently on a three site rotation including three of the most prestigious golf venues in the Commonwealth; Idle Hour Country Club, Valhalla Golf Club and The Club @ Olde Stone. Since its establishment in the 1970’s, Kentucky’s finest amateur and professional golfers have gone head to head to retain or regain the “Cup”.

Teams from the KGA and the KPGA are now composed of 12 members chosen by the use of the past year’s Player of the Year standings. Team captains will continue using their two at- large selections after the initial 10 players have been confirmed.

The team and individual match play format will use 27 holes. The first 9 hole – Four-Ball Team, Second 9 holes – Alternate Shot Team and the third 9 holes – Singles Match Play.
