Registration is officially open for the 2023 Farmers National Bank Greatest Golfer 54-hole adults tournament this Aug. 11th, 12th & 13th.
This is the 14th year of this epic amateur golf tournament based in Youngstown, Ohio and featuring 14 divisions for men and women.
Farmers Greatest has a home for players from scratch to 24 handicap in this Pro-like, no gimmes, no handicaps test of golf.
The early bird rate of $169 covers 36 holes of golf, carts, range, lunch and player gifts — AND a chance to “Make The Lake” and play free in the Sunday Finals at The Lake Club — our all-time championship home since 2010.
No other amateur golf event in the Great Lakes caters to as many golfers as Greatest Golfer does — playing at the finest private courses in northeast Ohio and featuring more than $20,000 in gifts and prizes.
In 2022, a record 350 players competed, with another 20 players left on the waiting list. The Greatest Golfer debuted in 2010 with just 97 players in 5 divisions.
Expanded course offerings are featured in 2023 due to the 2022 record demand for Greatest.
The early bird rate of $169 lasts until Father’s Day.
Highlighting the new offerings in 2023:
— $100 Championship Sunday Medalist honors for EVERY division, hosted by Zabel’s Restaurant Equipment and Supplies. If you’re not in the title hunt, your low score still can net a CASH prize.
— All new Seniors Divisions for better competition. Players 60 and above can now compete in Open, 3-6 heap, 7-9, 10-12 and 13+ divisions.
