The West Florida Golf Tour's first major takes place Wednesday for its 2011 Winter Season.

A hefty purse and prize for the winner is sure to be had considering the field size is 31 as of late Monday night.

The tournament is at the Ritz-Carlton Members Golf Club in east Manatee County.

The competition looks stiff with several players from the top five at the end of the WFGT's inaugural Order of Merit standings taking part at the Ritz.

Oh, and the winner gets a free entry into another tournament.

Not a bad incentive for some good golf.
