The **Alberta Open** is a [golf](/source/Golf) tournament that is held in Alberta, Canada. It was an important event on the [Canadian Tour](/source/Canadian_Tour) and its predecessors until 1999 when it endured a brief hiatus after losing its main sponsors. It returned as an event on the provincial circuit in 2002.[1]

## History

Although tournament organisers, Alberta Golf, state that the Alberta Open was first played in 1935,[2] the origins of the tournament can be traced back further, with an open championship being introduced to the Alberta Golf Association provincial tournament week in around 1912.

Originally a one-day 36-hole event played during the provincial tournament week alongside the amateur championship, the Alberta Open became a separate 72-hole tournament in 1937.[3] In response to not attracting as many big-name players as hoped, in 1953 prize money was substantially reduced and the tournament was cut to 54-holes.[4] As the Canadian Tour established itself in the late 1980s, the Alberta Open was again extended to 72-holes in 1988. Following its revival in 2002, it has been contested over both 36 and 54 holes.
