U.S. Hickory Open™ 11 Sedgefield CC Sept th U.S. HICKORY OPEN™ 11 Sedgefield CC Sept. 16-18, 2018 20 18 Welcome! th U.S. HICKORY OPEN™ 11 Sedgefield CC Sept. 16-18, 2018 20 18 n behalf of the Society of Hickory Golfers, the 2018 U.S. Hickory Open OCommittee welcomes you to Sedgefield Country Club. General Manager Beverly Marler and Director of Golf Rocky Brooks lead a team of dedicated professionals who are ready to assist you in every way possible. We are excited that the 11th annual USHO has returned to North Carolina. It will be contested on a course that was constructed under the watchful eye of Donald Ross and opened in 1926. Sedgefield is home to one of the oldest PGA tournaments, begun in 1938 as the Greater Greensboro Open and now titled the Wyndham Championship. The likes of Byron Nelson, Ben Hogan, and eight-time winner Sam Snead have walked CHRIS DEINLEIN HAMP MUNSEY these fairways and demonstrated their shot making abilities. It is the only Ross-designed course on the regular PGA Tour. Laid out in the golden age of hickory golf, it requires a number of different shots with very few level lies.Y ou will find the green complexes to be most challenging. The player who can master the Bermuda greens will, more than likely, be rewarded with a gold medal. As with any test of golf, good shots are rewarded. We on the committee hope that you enjoy the competition and Sedgefield Country Club as much as the camaraderie of your fellow members of the Society of Hickory Golfers. If there is anything the Committee can do to further your enjoyment of the 2018 U.S. Hickory Open, please let us know. We thank you for participating and hope the golf gods smile upon you.

We hope you enjoy this Thistoric Donald Ross classic, ranked 12th in the 2018 North Carolina Golf Panel rankings. We are excited to provide you with the finest of hospitality and golf course experiences. SedgefieldC ountry Club opened in 1926 and is situated in an area developed in the 1920s by avid golfer A.W. McAlister. Sedgefield was co-venue for the PGA Tour’s Greater Greensboro Open along with Starmount Forest from the tournament’s inception in 1938 through 1960. The tournament was held at Sedgefield exclusively from 1961 through 1976, when it moved to Forest Oaks. TheP GA Tour event was rejuvenated when it returned home to Sedgefield in 2008 and remains here today as the Wyndham Championship. The Wall of Champions behind the 9th green is worthy of a glimpse as it honors the tournament winners, including the legendary Sam Snead who won in Greensboro a record eight times. The Atlantic Coast Conference was founded at Sedgefield Country Club on May 8, 1953, and a plaque located in the main clubhouse lobby commemorates this powerhouse conference. The CCA ’s roots remain strong at Sedge- field still today as we host the Women’s Golf Championship each April. Sedgefield Country Club is part of McConnell Golf’s stable of 12 championship courses across the Carolinas and Tennessee designed by such renowned architects as Pete Dye, Arnold Palmer, Tom Fazio, Greg Norman, and Donald Ross. Our “pure golf for the true golfer” motto transcends agronomy, sport and service disciplines and is a principle that we live every day. On behalf of McConnell Golf and Sedgefield Country Club, thank you again for spending time with us. We invite you to relax and enjoy yourself. If there is anything we can do to make your time more enjoyable, please let us know.

In its first ever NCAA men’s golf match play national championship appearance, Oklahoma won its second national championship in program history with a 3-1-1 victory over defending champion Oregon at Rich Harvest Farms. “I had a good feeling (this) week. My wife and I had talked about this before we went to regionals that we aren’t the best putting team and at regionals, you got to be able to do somethings at the right time to advance through,” Sooners coach Ryan Hybl said. “I told her I was hoping that this group was going to get a chance to shine. If they had an opportunity this week, they were going to do something crazy good. “This has been our best individual year. We had five individual winners, which not a lot of teams can say. The firepower was there.” Oklahoma’s championship was its first since 1989 at Oak Tree Country Club in Edmonds, Oklahoma, a championship co-hosted with rival Oklahoma St..
