Get ready for an exciting week of professional golf as the Blue Championship returns to Northern Colorado! This prestigious tournament, held at the TPC Colorado in Berthoud, promises to be a thrilling showcase of talent and skill. With a $1 million purse on the line, golfers will be giving it their all over the course of four days, from July 9th to 12th.
One of the highlights of this year's event is the participation of local star Dillon Stewart, a Fossil Ridge graduate who has been granted an exemption to compete. Stewart's journey is particularly inspiring; after graduating from Fossil Ridge, he went on to excel at Oklahoma State and has since made a name for himself on the PGA TOUR. His first win came at the 2025 Bromont Open, and he finished the season ranked 12th on the PGA TOUR Americas Points List. This will be Stewart's debut at the Blue Championship and his 14th appearance on the Korn Ferry Tour.
For those planning to attend, tickets are available online, with various options to suit different budgets and preferences. Daily tickets start at just $10, while weekly passes are available for $30. If you're looking for a more exclusive experience, the Summit Club ticket offers premium access for $225. And don't forget, military personnel and first responders can enjoy free entry!
The Blue Championship has a rich history, with some notable winners over the years. Since its inception, the tournament has crowned champions like Neal Shipley, Christobal Del Solar, Nicholas Lindheim, Zecheng Dou, Tag Ridings, Will Zalatoris, and Nelson Ledesma. Each of these winners has left their mark on the competition, and it will be fascinating to see who joins this elite group in 2026.
As we gear up for this year's tournament, I can't help but feel a sense of excitement. The Blue Championship is more than just a golf tournament; it's an opportunity to witness the skill and dedication of these athletes up close. Personally, I think it's a testament to the power of sport to bring communities together and inspire us all. So, whether you're a golf enthusiast or just looking for a fun day out, make sure to mark your calendars and join us for this incredible event!
