The 2023 Portland Open is here and it's going to be an exciting tournament at Glendoveer Golf and Tennis in Portland, Oregon. The course, designed by West Forest, features a slightly larger layout than its East counterpart but with less overall distance. This unique design will put players' skills to the test, particularly on technical holes with numerous mandatories. Among the top contenders are notable pros like Simon Lizotte, former winner of this event last year and a rising star in the pro tour scene. Calvin Heinberg, another seasoned pro, is also looking to make a strong showing despite some lingering back issues. Paul Rodolin, a talented young player from Big Time Performance, has been on fire lately with blistering rounds that showcase his incredible arm strength. The tournament promises to be full of surprises as these top players take to the course at West Forest.
