NOTRE DAME, Ind. - The Fort Wayne men's golf team heads northwest for the two-day, 54-hole Fighting Irish Classic on October 8-9.
Event: Fighting Irish Classic
Host: Notre Dame
When: October 8 (8:45 a.m. shotgun) and 9 (8:30 a.m. shotgun)
Where: Warren Golf Course | Notre Dame, Ind.
Par: 71
Yardage: 7,020
Format: 54-hole stroke play with 36 holes on Sunday and 18 holes on Monday
Live Scoring: Golfstat
COMPETING TEAMS
Fort Wayne will be compete against 12 other teams. The Mastodons and host Notre Dame will be joined by Dayton, DePaul, Drake, Georgetown, Georgia Southern, Oakland, Toledo, Utah State, Western Illinois, William & Mary, and Xavier.
THE COURSE
Since its opening, the course has been hailed as one of the best new courses in America by Golf Digest and has been featured in Links Magazine and Golf Digest as a must-play venue. In addition, Golfweek has tabbed the Warren Golf Course as one of the nation's top 15 on-campus collegiate layouts. The design of the Warren Golf Course is reminiscent of the classic, "walkable" Irish and American courses built in the late 19th and early 20th century, with short distances between the greens and tees. Winding its way through 250 wooded acres on the northeast edge of the Notre Dame campus, the course incorporates traditional elements of the great golf courses of the early 20th century and — unlike many modern layouts — is built on subtleties rather than special effects. It includes more than 88 reshaped and enhanced bunkers, scattered among the 18 holes, and water comes into play on six holes. The course has bent grass fairways and fescue grass rough, playing surfaces found at some of today's top facilities.
