The seventh annual Coast Cadillac Laurel Oak Cup golf tournament took place Monday in Sarasota. There were club pros and amateurs teeing it up in an effort to raise money for the Special Olympics.
Since it was the seventh edition, there's not a lot that can go wrong once you've mastered the formula on running it - even with a packed field generating 47 fivesomes on both 18-hole courses at the club.
Lakewood Ranch Golf and Country Club director of golf Scott Lamoureaux said he thought it was his sixth time participating in the event's history.
And seeing the tournament first-hand, Lamoureaux mentioned Lakewood Ranch will try a similar type tournament benefiting the Make-a-Wish Foundation.
"Our first one, hopefully it'll grow into a similar type event," Lamoureaux said, "we want to space it out enough to where it wasn't a conflict ... May 2 will be the big gala dinner, auctions, cocktail party Sunday night at the club. And May 3 is a pro-am using a similar format."
