Living in Denver - Day Trip to Colorado Springs - PGA Men's Senior Open

If you are any type of golf fan and are around Denver, you probably already know that next week the PGA Men's Senior Open will be held in Colorado Springs at the Broadmoor.

Personally I am very excited about this - I received two tickets myself for the Open for Christmas, and it should be fun. In years past I had been a regular at The International, and now that is gone it is great to get some serious golf here again. Originally I was planning to take my son but he will now be visiting his cousins out of state so instead one of my lucky friends is scoring the extra ticket.

Some of the big names playing in the Open that I am most looking forward to are Greg Norman, Hale Irwin, Tom Watson, Fuzzy Zoeller, Ben Crenshaw and Mark O'Meara- a full list of players is here. After Greg Norman's amazing week last week at the British Open - I am pretty excited to get to see him play.

The Open begins on July 28th with the practice rounds and the official Round 1 will begin Thursday with the Championship Round being played on Sunday August 3rd. The full schedule can be found here.

Tickets are still available here or at King Soopers. Children under 17 are admitted free with an adult.

The Broadmoor is located in Colorado Springs and can be reached generally in about an hour from the south Denver suburbs - however I would allow for plenty of extra time the week of the Senior Open.
