The Mid-Senior Four-Ball is the perfect opportunity for a golfing getaway with a friend. It consists of two days of four-ball competition at the immaculate Pensacola Country Club. The classic course, established just after the turn of the 20th century, was awarded the renovation of the year by Golf Inc. Magazine in 2007. For a look at the 2015 Championship Results click here.
