Returning for a second year, the PGA Tour Canada is back in Brainerd for the CRMC Championship at Cragun’s Legacy Courses. The event brings players from all over the world and gives them a chance to compete for not only $250,000, but also a chance to get on the PGA Tour.

PGA Tour Canada starts with 156 golfers on Thursday and Friday, and on Saturday, the number is cut down to the top 60 plus ties. Those that make the final cut will head to the Fortinet Championship.

One thing that makes this golf event special is the public can attend the event at no cost, with the free admission having been made possible by the Northern Pacific Center. With food, a silent auction, and unlimited golf to watch, they have also added the TravisMathew clothing tour bus. Guests get a unique experience to shop, have a beverage on the house, and watch golf from rooftop seating.

The PGA Tour Canada runs all week until Sunday, September 3rd.
