The Tiger Will Not Tee-Off at LRI on Oct. 16
Tiger Woods will not be able to tee off at the Mendocino Rotary Golf Tournament at the Little River Inn Golf Course on Saturday, Oct. 16, 2021.

However, all golfers who have signed up individually or with a foursome, can still enjoy a wonderful day of golf. On tournament day, Sign Up is at 8 a.m. at the Little River Golf Course with a Tee-Off 4 Person Shotgun Scramble, starting at 9 a.m. Before hitting that first drive you will be able to purchase Raffle tickets and stop by the Bloody Mary Bar. While on the course food and beverages will be served at putting green area and by our mobile refreshment cart.
The foursomes with the best scores will be eligible for prizes of $100, $75 and $50 gift cards per golfer for a 1st, 2nd and 3rd place finish. Special cash prizes are available for the longest drive and getting closest to the pin on the two Par 3 holes, sponsored by Mendocino Rotarian Pete Rose, not the former baseball player.
