31 players from the Arkansas and Memphis Chapters made the trip to Wynne, AR. to participate in the Ridge Top Classic. The Ridge Top Classic was hosted by The Ridges at Village Creek State Park. The Ridges at Village Creek is an Andy Dye designed 27-hole Championship public golf course located atop Crowley’s Ridge, a unique landform in Northeast Arkansas. This course features MiniVerde Bermuda greens and Tiff 419 Bermuda tees and fairways. The three distinct nines offer outstanding golfing for any skill level of golfer. With little to no phone service it was quite dramatic without the live leaderboard to know where each player stood in the event.
