The Dana Open is an LPGA golf tournament held annually at the Highland Meadows Golf Club par 71 golf course in Sylvania, Ohio (a suburb of Toledo, Ohio). The Dana Open began in 1984 thanks to the efforts of Toledo native and long-time PGA tour golf caddie Judd Silverman, who had long wished to bring a professional ladies’ tournament to his hometown. Despite a few name changes and moves between different courses, the tournament has continued ever since, becoming known as a main stop on the LPGA tour as well as raising millions of dollars for children’s charities. The 2023 Dana Open was won by Linn Grant (Sweden), who shot -21 over four rounds to beat out the rest of the competition by 3 strokes. Will Grant do it again at the 2024 Dana Open or will a new challenger emerge? Get your 2024 Dana Open tickets from TicketX and be there fairway-side to find out!!

The LPGA Dana Open

The LPGA Dana Open was founded in 1984 by long-time PGA tour golf caddie Judd Silverman. Despite working in the men’s game, Silverman had long been a proponent of promoting ladies’ golf and had long nurtured the dream of bringing a professional ladies’ tournament to his hometown of Toledo, Ohio. The LPGA Dana Open has provided some remarkable drama over the years, but none more than in 1999 when it saw the largest playoff round in LPGA history after six players (Karrie Webb, Carin Koch, Sherri Steinhauer, Se Ri Pak, Kelli Kuehne, and Mardi Lunn) were all locked in a tie after 4 rounds. South Korean golfer Se Ri Pak emerged victorious, sinking a nerve-wracking putt to defend her title (Pak won the LPGA Dana Open a remarkable 5 times). Organizers are also proud of the tournament’s large contributions to children’s charities over the years.

Dana Open Format

The 2024 Dana Open tournament format follows a conventional 4-day, 4-round, 72-hole stroke play competition. The player with the lowest number of total strokes over 4 rounds is declared champion (a tie for first place is resolved in a head-to-head playoff, as in the wild 6-woman playoff of 1999!). The week begins with 2-3 days of practice rounds (which you can also attend, often quite cheaply) followed by the first two rounds on Thursday and Friday. A cut of roughly half the field (about 70 players) is then made, with the top half of the players continuing on into the third and fourth rounds on Saturday and Sunday. When the last golfer hits the 18th green and the scorecards are filled in, a winner is declared, and the trophy is presented!

Is watching live golf exciting? Is watching live golf fun?

Watching live golf is quite different from going to other live sports, in that it is a sport that takes days rather than hours and involves individuals taking their time rather than teams racing around at breakneck pace before the clock runs out. Many golf fans love the relaxed atmosphere around the sport, with many venues allowing fans to move freely around the edges of the course (within designated fan areas) to follow their favorite players through different stages of the course. Make no mistake though, there is no tension in the world like a golfer trying to sink a putt to win a four-day major tournament on the 18th hole in front of hundreds or even thousands of fans.
