Telus Skins Game - Fairmont Banff Springs Resort and Golf Course

Telus Golf Skins Game 2006

Telus Golf Skins Game 2006 Dates: August 7 - 8, 2006

This August, Canada's annual summer golf classic, the TELUS Golf Skins Game 2006, will feature a field as spectacular as the setting when the event visits The Fairmont Banff Springs in Banff, Alberta. Not only will the TELUS Golf Skins Game 2006 be visiting the province of Alberta for the first time in its 14-year history, but it will also mark the first time that a field of five players has competed in the popular event.

In a special tribute to the history of the game of golf, five players, each representing a different decade, will compete on the Telus Golf Skins Game 2006 and on one of Canada's most historic, and picturesque, golf courses. Jack Nicklaus, Greg Norman, 2006 Tournament Players Champion and Alberta's own Stephen Ames, John Daly, and Sergio Garcia will battle it out for cash prizes while helping raise money for the Alberta Children's Hospital.

To be a part of the audience for this celebrated Telus Golf Skins Game 2006 event, Golf Canada's West is offering 3 night hotel packages including tickets, breakfast and an exclusive golf gift. As tickets often sell out fast, these three night packages offer you a chance to walk the course with the players during an event that is traditionally one of the largest golf television audiences of all Canadian golf events. The remaining players in the foursome will be announced closer to the tournament date.

The spectacular Canadian Rockies is the setting this year at a course designed in 1928 by Canada's world-renowned golf course architect Stanley Thompson. The Fairmont Banff Springs Golf Course is famous for its panoramic beauty and challenging layout set in the heart of the Rocky Mountains as it winds along the Bow River under the snow-capped peaks of Sulphur Mountain and Mount Rundle.
