Golf Event Reviews

HUGE MISTAKE MOVING TOURNAMENT FROM MISSION HILLS. I’ve attended this event since 1997. This will be my last one. Extremely poorly run. No one had any clue what they were doing. Most spectator unfriendly course.

The tournament was well organized and fun to attend. Will be back next year!

Was great i volunteered as marshal and worked all week

Great first time event in Adelaide. Improvements required around more signage for directions to holes. Park and ride was well managed but drop off and pick up locations would have been better if closer to the action. Designated male and female toilets. More healthy food options and opportunity to showcase SA food.

今回の会場のホアカレイは、クラブのコミュニティーによって大変大切にされているクラブで、そんなコースでのイベントにギャラリーで参加でき良い経験でした

An amazing experience! The food was delicious and the golf played was phenomenal! Staff was very kind and helpful as well. Would definitely recommend going this coming tournament.

Such a fun event! It’s like the Masters meets tailgating!

This is usually a very well run and therefore enjoyable tournament. This year, however, they “went big”. The event was seriously oversold. The clubhouse tickets were great if eating and drinking in the clubhouse was your aim but the on course venues were so oversold as to be not worth the effort. They had limited seating and a policy that allowed reentry so once they filled up, there was little chance to get in. We all waited in line for upwards of an hour watching people go back in from the concession stands. This happened at both holes 8 and 15. Many of us just left. The tickets were worthless if you wanted to watch golf.

Overall had a good time. Volunteers very helpful and friendly and everything was easy to follow.

As an international visitor had problems getting to and from the venue. Shuttle buses would have been good.

Wonderful event

The staff/volunteers were great, friendly; however, the tournament itself was lacking. There were no spotters near water hazards to assist players who hit balls into the penalty areas. Also, I saw a ruling question in the 18th hole bunker but no Rules Officials were around so the players just proceeded as best they could. There was no snack/water cart going around for walking fans. No printed programs/tee times available. More food concessions. This site is not fan-friendly but staff did their best.

Awesome Valero Open Tournament. Yhe Pros make playing golf look easy. Looking forward to next year.

I got presedential tickets. It was hard to know what to do and where we could go. The food was ok nothing great. I'm extremely disappointed in the field of players, I would not attend again if there will not be more top ranked players

Badly organized! No shade in 95 degrees? Car park was a joke. Music blew the head off us!

PGA events are superior in comparison

LPGA embodies my personal values.

Friday's program did not have a course MAP. I took a photo of the signpost for my phone. They should have had some fairway crossover spots as difficult to get to the restroom facilities. Also, should have had stations to wash hands outside the restroom portolets. Definitely needed a few more of these areas - one more location per 9 as too far in between for many older attendees.

We brought children so the snacks should have had candy options like Twizzlers and gummy bears. Very adult oriented and there were many children. Food selection was OK, but hot dogs were COLD. Wine was WARM. If you asked for ice you received less wine.

Surprised no merchandise tent. Most of merchandise sold out by Saturday. They don't restock? Use the same stuff next week and most of the trainers go there....

Buses were fine and drivers nice. Volunteers were friendly and helpful.

Loved Every Minute

While the tournament was excellent, there was a limited selection of LPGA apparel. Few concession stands with limited selections of food and drink. It seemed as if the club or maybe members didn’t necessarily want the tournament held on their course.

Enjoyed the golf immensely. Would like to see more viewing stands where you could sit and enjoy food and drinks on 18th hole. Transportation to and from parking area was very slow the first day(not enough buses).

Fabulous time watching these Amazing Young Ladies play. What a beautiful course and spectacular scenery of the Superstition Mountains in Gold Canyon. We hope it will be back again next year!
