Team entries are now available for the Senior Oregon Open Invitational at Wildhorse Resort and Casino on July 27-29. PGA Director of Golf Michael Hegarty is looking forward to hosting again this year for the 19th straight year! We are excited for a number of reasons, but don’t just take it from us—here are Joe Carranza’s favorite things about the Senior Oregon Open.
“Myself and my team members just love coming to the Oregon Senior Open. First off, we never have bad weather. And we all love the fact that accommodations are just a golf cart ride away. And lastly, the golf course is always in great shape. Nice weather, great accommodations and a great golf course, my team and I couldn’t think of a better place to be in the last week of July!” – Joe Carranza, PGA

Wildhorse Resort and Casino
Wildhorse championship golf course was designed by John Steidel. Nestled at the base of mountains and wide open terrain, the course is modeled after a traditional Scottish links-style course with plenty of bunkers and tall grass lurking to make you work a little harder than usual. Each hole is surrounded by spectacular, unobstructed vistas with gentle rolling hills and fairway mounds reflecting the foothills of the Blue Mountains. The clubhouse was completely remodeled in 2019.
Wildhorse Resort and Casino is also home to over 1,200 slot machines plus all your favorite table games including roulette, craps, poker, blackjack, keno and bingo.
