NORWAY — Oak Crest Golf Course, home of last month’s 92nd annual UP Ladies Golf Association Championships, hosts another major next week.

The 104th UP Golf Association Men’s Championships tees off Tuesday and runs through Friday. Tournament director Kevin Londo reports 101 golfers have registered.

“We’re going to be in good shape and looking forward to the tournament,” said Londo, admitting to some anxiety when only 80-some golfers had signed up as of last week.

While the ladies needed a day or two to gauge slow greens, that won’t be a problem for the men. Course superintendent Mike Drotzur will have faster greens.

“We have been working on speeding up our greens,” said Londo, director of golf and operations at Oak Crest. “We’ve been top-dressing like crazy, so they will be quicker than they were for the ladies.

“The plushness is beautiful. The course right now is top-notch shape.”

Pin placements drew the ire of UP senior golfers in the 2016 at Oak Crest. That wasn’t an issue in the UP ladies tournament as Londo and others mapped fair but challenging spots.

Longtime Oak Crest member and UP semifinalist Kathy Gagnon said the pins were positioned “in places I’ve never seen before,” adding she had no problem with where they were and the course was in great shape.

Like the ladies tournament, men can also receive an advance copy of the pin placement schedule.

“It comes down to where your misses are,” Londo said. “Anything is bad if you miss it to the wrong side of the pin. That’s just the way it goes.”

Golfers for the opening days will play a course measuring between 5,900 and 6,100 yards.

“It’ll be a combination of our blue and white (tees) the first two days,” Londo said. “We have many different caliber of golfers. We don’t want to extend it all the way to the back (tee box) until we have the flights established.”

After two rounds, championship through third flight will play the blues while other flights will tee off from the whites.

Weather report calls for a slight chance of rain on Tuesday with temperatures in the low 80s for the week. The ladies had to deal with sweltering heat for a couple days with water and ice-soaked towels available on the course.

“That should be great,” Londo said. “It won’t be as warm as the ladies tournament.”

Gunnar Stein of Houghton will return to defend his title but he won’t be able to get in a practice round. He has an exam Monday at Saginaw Valley State University.

“Quite a few guys are playing practice rounds Monday,” Londo said.

Stein and Marquette University star Hunter Eichhorn of Carney are among the group with Bryce Douglas and Rob Ryan teeing off at 10:20 a.m. Tuesday.

In addition to Stein, other past UP champions in the field are Jon Ellis and Jim Markell of Iron Mountain, Mark Clements of Ishpeming, and Joe Quinn and Matt Argall of Gladstone.

Tournament begins at 8 a.m. Tuesday with Andy Ferm of Marinette joining former Oak Crest pro Ryan (Spike) Gordon, Joe Pontbriand and Sam Fredrick in the opening group.
