Max Hosking admits that prior to this season his golf game – his golf life, really – had reached a crossroads of sorts, as the 36-year-old professional had not played serous tournament golf for a few seasons.

The Wisconsin PGA welcomed 29 teams to Maple Bluff Country Club on Monday, July 13, for the Wilson Golf Pro-Am, one of the featured stops on the Wisconsin PGA Four-Player Pro-Am Series.

The event brought together WPGA professionals and amateur partners for a day of competitive golf and camaraderie on the historic Maple Bluff layout. Teams competed in a one gross and one net better ball format, rewarding both exceptional individual play and consistent team performance throughout the round.

More than 70 Wisconsin PGA professionals teed it up Monday, June 29, at Lawsonia’s Woodlands Course for the annual WPGA Stableford Classic. On a hot, humid, and breezy day, birdies and eagles were the name of the game as the modified Stableford scoring system rewarded aggressive play and gave competitors every reason to chase red numbers.

Challenging conditions and a dramatic finish highlighted Monday’s X Golf Milwaukee Pro-Am at Tripoli Country Club, where the team of Michael Crowley, Bruce Jorgensen, Tom Walton, and John Glowacki captured the title with a stellar combination of consistency and late-round heroics.

In the computer-scoring era of the Sentry Wisconsin State Women’s Open, no winner had ever overcome what Payton Haugen overcame Wednesday on a rain-soaked SentryWorld stage to emerge as a champion.

The foursome of John Shipshock, PJ Murphy, Calvin Kruschek, and Larry Paul captured the title at the Wisconsin PGA National Golf Graphics Pro-Am on Monday, June 1, at Bishops Bay Country Club, finishing six points clear of the field.

A field of 31 PGA associates and A-8 PGA members competed in the Wisconsin PGA Assistant Professional Spring Classic on Friday, May 29, 2026, at Oakwood Park Golf Course.

The Wisconsin PGA Spring Pro-Ladies event visited the River Club of Mequon on Tuesday, with the Highland and Woodland Courses providing the backdrop for a terrific day of competition and camaraderie.
