It looks like the one near Nashville is called GreyStone Golf Club. There's a Greystone Country Club near Birmingham.

They played their 2024 championship at Greystone Golf Club. Maybe it's a typo.

You're right. It's probably the one near Nashville. The one in Birmingham has a Senior Tour event in May every year so they might not want another event so close to that.

Yep. 99% sure it's not the one here in Birmingham. The Regions Tradition sucks up all of May for that course.

The SAA has rebranded. Meh. They also have redone their website in conjunction with Sidearm.

Ron Boerger · February 05, 2025, 02:04:58 PM

Tucker Horn's younger brother, QB Welker (3965 yds, 51 TDs this season to go with 568 yds rushing and 8TDs at TAPPS state semi-finalist Lubbock Christian HS), will sign to play at Trinity tomorrow per a tweet from the school. He's (self-)listed as 6'2", 205 which would give him an inch and ten pounds on Tucker.

There's nobody coming back at QB that saw much playing time (Hondo Franklin saw the field in six games but threw only 18 passes total, completing nine), so the position should be wide open in training camp.
