Tournament Facts
This is not an open-entry tournament: it is a Ryder Cup-style team match between the top 12 Iowa Golf Association amateurs and the top 12 Iowa PGA Section professionals, with rosters (10 Open + 2 Senior per side) filled via a rolling IGA/Iowa PGA points/ranking system rather than public registration; the 2025 edition was explicitly listed as 'Entries by invite only.'
