Seventy-two two-woman teams will face off in a 72-hole stroke play format, alternating between foursomes (alternate shot) and four-ball (best ball) rounds. Beyond the competition, the Championship drives regional growth and community impact through charitable giving, volunteerism, and partnerships that support sustainable economic development across the Great Lakes Bay Region.
