Come join us at the Tennessee Senior State Open where Champions are made!
The idea of a Tennessee Senior State Open came from PGA Professionals Mark Houser and Tom Kammann. Houser and Kammann brought the idea to the Tennessee Section staff, the staff saw this as a great opportunity and started laying the ground work for the Tennessee Senior State Open. The Staff then brought the idea to Stonehenge PGA Professional Warren Huddelston and Steve Kraft, they also embraced the idea, and thought Stonehenge Golf Course would be a great host for the event. The City of Crossville and mayor J H Graham took title sponsor of the event and have been working closely with the TPGA Staff to produce a one of a kind event.
