One of the hallmarks of the Illinois Open Series is our consistency from event to event. With each tournament being run the same as the last, players know what to expect when they decide to play in one of our events.

Divisions

Please note in your planning that Lemon Lake is only a one-day event. The other events are all either one round per day two events or split day events with some divisions playing on Saturday and the others playing on Sunday. Please see the specific event for details.

A note on amateur division names: The IOS team feels that the traditional division names (Advanced/Intermediate/Recreational/Novice) can be misleading. We will instead refer to them as AM I, AM II, AM III, and AM IV. See the FAQ page for more info.
