The Harold Valery M.D. INC. Primavera
Open tournament name has been changed to June Open due
to the sponsors reneging on his sponsorship. Because of
this undignified act, the club took a substantial financial
loss. However in order to keep the tournament's promise
and maintain the integrity of the event, all prizes were
paid fully. For full results, visit
