Omni hotels’ Generation cup: A Family Golf Tournament
Updated June 11, 2025
Golf has long been a way for families to connect, and the Generation Cup, hosted by omni Hotels and Resorts, exemplifies this. The family golf tournament,played in partnership with the PGA of America,recently brought together generations of golfers at the Omni PGA Frisco Resort and Spa in Frisco,Texas.
The inaugural national championship of the Generation Cup featured two-person teams who qualified at one of 12 events held at Omni golf resorts across the country. Teams competed in divisions including grandparent/grandchild, parent/child (or aunt/uncle/niece/nephew), and PGA Professional/generational family member. Top net and gross scoring teams from each division advanced to the finals.
The omni PGA Frisco Resort and Spa offered more then just golf. The property includes a hotel, three courses, restaurants, and The Dance Floor, a public putting course. The atmosphere fostered community, with families enjoying the facilities.
The tournament kicked off with a welcome dinner and a round on The Swing, a 10-hole par-3 course with holes designed by Gil hanse and Beau Welling, architects of Fields Ranch’s 18-hole courses.
Competition took place on Fields Ranch West, with a two-person best-ball shamble format. Players were assigned tees based on age and USGA handicap, leveling the playing field. Post-round recovery included access to tour-level recovery rooms and spa services.
Beau Welling, designer of Fields Ranch west, explained his design philosophy. He aimed to create a course challenging for all ages and skill levels. Welling said his design accounted for differences in greens in regulation between high and low handicap players, adding challenging green contours for better players and forgiving collection areas for others. “We want everyone to enjoy the golf course,” Welling said.
The final round was held on Fields Ranch East, designed by Gil hanse, which is set to host the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship. The course demanded accuracy and a strong short game.
