Windermere, FL (July 11, 2022) – Deuce Am Tour announced that they will be partnering with Troon. When the team at the Deuce Am Tour conceptualized this Next Level Golf Tour for Amateurs they wanted to host the events at some of the best properties across the US. Troon was the first phone call they made to the recently appointed Kendall Murphy to see if he could make it work. He Did! From LA, Phoenix, Vegas, Chicago, Dallas, Miami, Orlando, Atlanta, DMV and up to New Jersey – they made it happen.
“The game is changing and competitive amateur events should be changing with that new shift in the sport. Am Tours have been fairly stale for the last decade and well – we’re here baby,” said Tarek DeLavallade, Deuce Am Tour Commissioner. “We will be as competitive as the other Amateur Tour events, but with a different vibe that’s been missing. I know plenty of guys who can have a few beers, a seltzer, or cocktail along with a cigar as well as enjoying their favorite music and still shoot their handicap!”
Troon’s Director of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion-Kendall Murphy “When Tarek reached out to me in January and shared the concept, I immediately felt that Troon had to be at the front of this incredible Amateur Tour. We are already working with Deuce to get them in our Pro Shops from our Daily Fee courses to the Prive Collection, so it just made sense.” The tour has also secured partnerships with Uncle Nearest Premium Whiskey, GolfPass/GolfNow, PXG, and several other regional brands in specific locations. The Deuce Am Tour Series officially launches September 23rd at the Troon Managed Tustin Ranch Golf Club in Irvine, California.
DeLavallade, the President of Deuce has planned over 250 golf events over the last 25 years across the US and Caribbean is ready to shake the world with this national sporting event series for the cool kids of golf. The tour has also secured partnerships with Uncle Nearest Premium Whiskey, GolfPass/GolfNow, PXG, Golf Genius, and several other regional brands in specific locations.
The 10 National Tournaments will feature 4 Competitive Flights and 1 non-competitive flight called Hackerish which is for 25+ Golfers on Mondays at mostly Semi and Private Golf Clubs. The events will feature social media influencers who will be conducting live interviews utilizing their social media platforms including Deuce Am Tour YouTube Channel, and IG Live. Additionally, Golf Genius will be providing live leaderboard coverage that will be available on the website of DeuceAmTour.com.
