"Some of the smaller towns we get a bigger crowd, so we are kind of a
big fish in a little pond so to speak it brings in more excitement and
we hope to have as many people from the Tifton area come out and watch
these guys play," Said Tour Director Jeff Harlow.
The winner takes home $28,000. The "Springhill Classic" starts Thursday and will run through Sunday, March 3. Tee times will start at 7:30 a.m. on each of those days.
