Bayonet Black Horse named as Q-School site
Bayonet Black Horse, the 36-hole, full-bentgrass facility on the Monterey Peninsula, recentley announced the Bayonet Course has been selected by the Champions Tour to host a Q-School regional, November 2-5.
The announcement caps a banner year for Bayonet for hosting both United States Golf Association (USGA) and PGA Tour events. Widely regarded as one of the most challenging layouts in the state, the course hosted a U.S. Open qualifier on May 10 in advance of the national championship at Pebble Beach won by Graeme McDowell.
In addition, Bayonet will host the Tuesday qualifier for the Champions Tour’s Home Care and Hospice First Tee Open at Pebble Beach on Aug. 31, the Monday qualifier for the Frys.com Open at CordeValle on Oct. 11, and Stage Two PGA Tour Q-School Nov. 15-20.
“Bayonet has reached critical mass as a venue for hosting high-level, professional golf tournaments,” said Dick Fitzgerald, project director for owner/operator Seaside Resort Development. “The Champions Tour is becoming more and more competitive each year, with the addition of players like Fred Couples and Mark Calcavecchia, and Bayonet should provide a stern and strategic test.”
