History of the Championship
This year’s Assistant Championship marks the 46th anniversary as a National event but the PNW Section has been conducting the event since Fred Pelzer donated the trophy in 1965.
The National Championship tradition began in 1976 to recognize the role of the PGA Assistant Professional and how important he or she may be in the success of a golf facility as well as our entire Association. They represent more than 10,000 men and women assistant professionals and registered PGA associates nationwide.
Port Ludlow Golf Course
Port Ludlow Golf Course provides a challenging 18 hole golf experience known as Tide and Timber. One flows down toward the water and the other treks through the dense forest. The Port Ludlow Golf Course was designed by Robert Muir Graves.
Renowned Pacific Northwest Golfer Ted Wurtz was lured to Port Ludlow as the inaugural PGA Professional for its opening in May 1975. Golf Digest and Golf Week Magazines have ranked Port Ludlow as “One of the Best Places to Play.”
