Coming Up in June

Montréal, May 25, 2022 - Golf Québec's competitive season is now well underway. Again, in June, amateur golfers will be very busy with the presentation of numerous events throughout the province!
Women’s Tournaments - registration
The Women's Provincial Tour presented in collaboration with belairdirect will officially take off as the Women's Provincial Mid-Amateur Championship will take place at the Bois-Francs golf club from June 14 to 16. We will be able to follow Marie-Thérèse Torti (Vallée du Richelieu) who has captured the title four times (2004, 2007, 2016, 2018) and whose induction into the Québec Golf Hall of Fame will be celebrated on May 31.
Subsequently, on June 20, the ladies will have the chance to compete at the prestigious Mount Bruno Country Club where the Debby Savoy Morel Cup will return after the cancellation of the last two editions. Once again, Marie-Thérèse Torti (Vallée du Richelieu) will defend her senior title. This event is part of the Jocelyne Bourassa Series where the Order of Merit is used to identify golfers who will be exempted for the women’s amateur and senior Canadian championships. The evening will end with a dinner and a special presentation in memory of golf legend, Jocelyne Bourassa.
Finally, from June 28 to July 1, 2022, Golf Château-Bromont and the City of Bromont will be the scene of the ORORO Women's Championship of the PGA of Canada, which will be organized by Golf Québec and the PGA of Canada and will welcome up to 156 players.

Our amateur golfers will have the challenge of meeting a very high level of golfers.
