Senior Oregon Open Entries Available

Team entries are now available for the Senior Oregon Open Invitational at Wildhorse Resort and Casino on August 1-3.  PGA Director of Golf Michael Hegarty and Ryan Dahl, PGA Head Professional are looking forward to hosting again this year for the 21st anniversary of Wildhorse Resort’s sponsorship! We are excited for a number of reasons, but don’t just take it from us—here are Jeff Coston’s favorite things about the Senior Oregon Open.

“The Oregon Senior Open is a highlight during the summer. The weather makes me feel 25 again. The course is fun. The people are friendly. The hotel and food are wonderful. The tournament is like a vacation.”

– Jeff Coston, PGA

The PNW PGA’s Most Popular Senior Tournament

Since its induction in 1996, the Senior Oregon Open has grown to be the premier senior golf tournament in the Northwest.  This event draws the best players ages 50 and over from all over the Pacific Northwest Section.

Teams will play both the Wildhorse Resort Golf Course and The Golf Course at Birch Creek during the event this year. This event fills every year and we expect a waiting list.

Wildhorse Resort GC & The Golf Course at Birch Creek

Wildhorse championship golf course was designed by John Steidel. Nestled at the base of mountains and wide open terrain, the course is modeled after a traditional Scottish links-style course with plenty of bunkers and tall grass lurking to make you work a little harder than usual. Each hole is surrounded by spectacular, unobstructed vistas with gentle rolling hills and fairway mounds reflecting the foothills of the Blue Mountains. The clubhouse was completely remodeled in 2019.

After we played The Golf Course at Birch Creek in 2020, we decided to expand the field in 2022 and enjoy both the amazing track at Wildhorse and the Golf Course at Birch Creek! 

Wildhorse Resort and Casino is also home to over 1,200 slot machines plus all your favorite table games including roulette, craps, poker, blackjack, keno and bingo.
