San Diego Padres and Callaway to build nine-hole golf course inside Petco Park
Major League Baseball season is over – it is for my teams, anyway – but Callaway and the San Diego Padres have come up with a fantastic reason to visit Petco Park next month. They're building an actual nine-hole golf course inside the park, and it'll be open to the public on Nov. 5-8.
Each hole will play in a different part of the park, from the dugout to the upper deck, and will feature a unique theme along with a chance to win prizes from snacks to a new Callaway Great Big Bertha Driver. Players will finish their round in The Loft presented by Budweiser, which will be transformed into a Callaway clubhouse and will give golfers the chance to relax, have some snacks, watch other golfers and even shop for souvenirs.
The course begins on a putting green in the Padres' dugout. From there, golfers will move to the upper deck, where they'll hit shots down onto the field from various locations for holes 2 through 5.
No. 6 will tee off on the field level, while No. 7 will move to the Batter's Eye out in centerfield. No. 8 will feature some putting in the bullpen, and the final hole will be on the rooftop of the Western Metal Supply Co. building.
Green fees start at $100 for twosomes ($50 per player) and $200 for foursomes. The cost includes a nine-hole round for each golfer, as well as parking, snacks and beverages along the course, and a limited edition "The Links at Petco Park" hat.
Platinum twosomes and foursomes are also available for $400 and $800, respectively. In addition to the standard package, upgrades will include a limited edition Padres-branded Callaway club for each golfer and tickets to a 2016 Padres game.
The course will be reserved for media and corporate use on Nov. 5, and will be open to the public Nov. 6-8. Callaway will provide clubs and balls for players to use, and tee times can be reserved at:www.padres.com/thelinks.
"Playing a nine-hole course at a venue like Petco Park with Callaway golf clubs and balls will be a once-in-a-lifetime round, and we are excited to be a part of it," said Callaway Senior Vice President of Marketing Harry Arnett.
