Speaking ahead of the event, tournament host, Sir Nick Faldo said,“It is great to be back for another year of the Major Champions Invitational. Thanks to some very generous Major Champions, as well as our sponsors Golf Saudi, we have been able to take the event to a whole new level. We also have a few special treats up our sleeves for the players, which should add to the whole experience! Ultimately, it’s about inspiring the next generation by building a connection between them and some of their heroes. With the success of last year’s individual Champions on the amateur circuit in 2019, we’re hopeful the event concept is really starting to reap rewards.”
The on-course action will unfold at Lookout Mountain Golf Club in Phoenix, Arizona, located between picturesque Sonoran Desert and Phoenix North Mountains. The course, built in 1989, is a nine-time recipient of Golf Digest’s Four-Star Award and has been ranked in the Top 10 golf courses in Arizona.
