The Web.com Tour will tee it up at Portland’s famed Witch Hollow at Pumpkin Ridge August 27-30 for the 2nd annual WinCo Foods Portland Open presented by Kraft. 156 of the world’s best golfers will compete for the final Web.com Tour Regular Season tournament title as they battle it out for their ultimate goal: PGA Tour membership.

Given its position on the Web.com Tour schedule, the WinCo Foods Portland Open will receive attention from national and international golf communities. The four-day tournament offers players the final opportunity to finish among the Top-25 Regular Season money winners for 2015. At the conclusion of play on Sunday, August 30th, a WinCo Foods Portland Open champion will be crowned and those 25 leading money earners will have secured the first 25 PGA Tour cards for the 2015-16 season.

The WinCo Foods Portland Open recently announced some of its special events for the week. Kids Day is Thursday, August 27th and will have activities, games, mascots, prizes and giveaways. The Nike Golf Junior Clinic will begin Thursday at 2:00 p.m. and will feature an interactive format where junior golfers will rotate between stations as they receive instructions and advice from Web.com Tour pros. Free lunch will be served to all junior golfers beginning at 1:00 p.m. All junior golfers and their families are encouraged to attend this special day at Ghost Creek at Pumpkin Ridge. Clubs will be provided, so please leave your clubs at home. The tournament will host a three-part live music series on-site at Pumpkin Ridge Thursday, Friday, and Saturday evenings at the newly created “The Grove at the 12th Hole.”

There will be a Free Pancake Brunch at Pumpkin Ridge for all ticket holders on Final Round Sunday beginning at 10 a.m. Adding some suspense to the weekend, if a Web.com Tour Pro makes a hole-in-one on the short par-3 12th Hole Thursday through Sunday, one lucky fan will win a brand new Mercedes-Benz thanks to Mercedes-Benz of Wilsonville.

WinCo Foods has committed to give 100% of all ticket sales revenue from this event to deserving charities and youth organizations in Oregon and Southwest Washington. Tickets start as low as $15 for any one day, or $25 for the entire week. Parking will be free all week and kids 17-and-under will be admitted free (even without a ticketed adult).
