The Pine Hollow Open

My favorite memories of Downers Grove through the years are of the Pine Hollow Open Golf Tournament. It started in 1977 and has run every year since on the last Saturday in April at the historic Downers Grove Golf Club. Golfers of all abilities are invited to participate. We have over one hundred golfers playing every year. The 2007 champion is Mike Troy, the golf pro at Zigfield Troy Golf Course in Woodridge.
