FRISCO, Texas (July 5, 2023) ー Over 500 of the country’s top high school golfers are set to compete in the 2023 PGA High School Golf National Invitational presented by Titleist & FootJoy. This marks the first amateur championship to be played at PGA Frisco and the fifth edition of the PGA High School Golf National Invitational since its debut in 2019.
The Girls Invitational will take place July 10-12 on the Fields Ranch East and West Courses at PGA Frisco as well as Old American Golf Club. The Boys Invitational is scheduled for July 17-19 on the Fields Ranch East and West Courses at PGA Frisco as well as The Tribute Golf Links.
