2010 Superpro

The Gulf Coast GCSA is hosting the much-anticipated 2010 SuperPro Tournament at the Pensacola Country Club on Monday, September 20th. This private club, with magnificent views of Pensacola Bay, is one of the oldest clubs in Florida. After Hurrican Ivan, the entire course underwent a renovation and reopened in late 2006, adding a new clubhouse in 2008.
