The Elmhurst Invitational

Started in 2003, the Elmhurst Men’s Invitational Amateur Championship is one of the most prestigious amateur events in Manitoba and in recent years the even has become one of the most noted events in Western Canada, with top golfers like the European Tour’s Aaron Cockerill, and past mid-amateur champion Todd Fanning taking the title.

With a spot in the Canadian Men’s Amateur Championship traditionally on the line for the low Manitoban in the field, the competition is fierce, but the camaraderie is beyond reproach.
