Eligibility Change for SunTrust State Open of Virginia & Senior Open of Virginia
At its January meeting, the Section Board of Directors voted to expand the eligibility for both the SunTrust State Open of Virginia (July 19-22) and the Senior Open of Virginia (Sept. 20-21) so that all MAPGA Professionals (Member or Apprentice, with or without playing privileges, all in good standing), regardless of where they live or work, may enter to play. This action mimics a decision made by the VSGA Board of Directors to expand eligibility for amateurs in these events.
