All of the parking will be on site,

the viewing areas. People will be

An army of workers added final
touches to the ornate 65,000-
square-foot clubhouse. Golf fans
who purchase a ticket to the
Tesoro Café will enjoy spectacular
views of the finishing holes Nos. 9,
17 and 18. The Arnold Palmerdesigned
course will host the
golfers. Organizers included No.
18 from the Tom Watson-designed
course because of the green’s proximity
to the clubhouse.
John Subers, tournament director for the Ginn Sur Mer Classic at Tesoro,
overlooks the 18th hole from the clubhouse.
