Nashville Golf Open
Golf tournament
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Simmons Bank Open is a golf tournament on the Korn Ferry Tour. It was first played in June 2016 as the Nashville Golf Open at the Nashville Golf & Athletic Club in Brentwood, Tennessee.[1] After the event was canceled in 2020 due to COVID-19, it moved to The Grove in May 2021 as a regular season Korn Ferry event. Once it was named the 2022 Korn Ferry Tour Tournament of the Year,[2] it was announced that the event would move to September to be a part of the Korn Ferry Tour Finals for the 2023 Korn Ferry Tour season and beyond. Beginning in 2024, the event moved to the Vanderbilt Legends Club's North Course as The Grove will be hosting LIV Golf Nashville's event.[3]
