The 52nd Mitchell Cup took place on Sunday, October 5th, at Onondaga Golf & Country Club. The annual matches between the Syracuse District Golf Association (SDGA) and the Central New York PGA featured a full day of spirited competition and camaraderie, with the SDGA team emerging victorious by a final score of 29–19.
The morning session featured a Modified Alternate Shot format, with two points available per match. Players then returned to the course in the afternoon for Four-Ball matches, where six points were up for grabs in each contest.
