Victoria Open
The Victoria Open is a golf tournament on the PGA Tour Americas. It was previously a stop on the PGA Tour Canada before its merger with the PGA Tour Latinoamérica. It was the longest running tour event on the Canadian Tour.[1] It has been played at several different courses in the Victoria, British Columbia area, and at the Uplands Golf Club in Oak Bay since 2008.
Originally played as the Victoria Open in 1981, the tournament was revived in 1984 as a stop on the PGA Tour's satellite Tournament Players Series. That series ended after the 1985 season, and the Victoria Open then became a fixture on the Canadian Tour, where it had many different sponsored titles.
