The Kentucky championship will host players from the PGA Tour and the European DP World Tour at Keene Trace Golf Club in Nicholas Ville.
Here's more.
Back when the tournament first came, it was, you know, the bright lights and the stars were all in awe as the big show was coming to the club.
We've learned a lot since then.
It still carries the same level of excitement.
They get to host the best players in the world.
But it's nice to come in five or six years later and kind of know what to expect and know what it looks like from a club operation.
There's there's only so many PGA Tour events in the world every year.
So to have one of those 50 events right here in central Kentucky, right in our own backyard is a really big deal.
So there are other events that are played around the country.
But the barber saw started out in Alabama and eventually moved to to Kentucky.
You know, in in the grand scheme of the golf world, especially professional golf, a lot of the attention gets put on the top ten players of the top 25 players.
And that's where a lot of the media gets in.
What's a lot of fun to watch the events like we have here at the Kentucky championship are you see these guys that are up and coming and they in the past the Barber Style championship has been producing major stars that are going on to win other events.
And so you're seeing their names pop up in big lots throughout the rest of the year.
There will be 156 total players competing in the Kentucky championship this year.
50 of those players are coming from the DP World Tour.
So you have 106 folks from here in the United States and then another 50 of the best golfers in the world coming here to play.
The tournament runs from July 11th through the 14th, the Wednesday before the event.
Families can meet the players and take pictures.
