The Robson Ranch Men’s Golf Association sponsored the Robson Cup Championship on May 13 and 14. The event was organized and directed by Lawry Cohen of the MGA.

The Robson Cup Championship is a two-day tournament for members that is flighted, based on handicaps with both low net and low gross winners. All players within a flight play from the same tees.

The Robson Cup is awarded to the lowest net score among all flights.
