We are excited to announce the 104th Turtle Creek Casino Michigan Open Championship will take place on June 14-17, 2021

Registration for all of the qualifiers will begin on March 1. Unless you are exempt you must enter through the qualifier. Registering through the actual championship site is for exempt players only and will begin on March 1st as well.

The Michigan Open, one of the state’s longest-running golf events, began in 1916 and was first won by Leo Diegel, who also played in the inaugural Ryder Cup matches and The Masters.

Historically, some of golf’s most famous names are listed on the Michigan Open’s James D. Standish, Jr. Trophy. Walter Hagen, the father of modern professional golf and captain of the first five U. S. Ryder Cup teams, won the event in 1921. Michigan PGA Professional Scott Hebert is tied with Al Watrous for all-time Michigan Open titles with six. Legendary Michigan amateur, Chuck Kocsis, who played on three Walker Cup teams, won three titles. Other notable multiple winners with at least three titles include Randy Erskine (5), Chick Harbert (4), Walter Burkemo (4), John Barnum (4), Marvin Stahl (3), Steve Brady (3), and Ryan Brehm (3).
