The Miller Open started back in 1993 as a Bachelor golf outing celebrating Doug & Molly Miller's wedding. In 1995, Mathew Smith & Jacquie Miller got hitched and the tournament changed its name to the Miller-Smith Invitational (MSI). Through the years we have had some great memories and played at fabulous courses in New York and Pennsylvania.
AJ Berens (Grandpa) inspired us all to take on Golf not just as a physical activity but a mental and emotional one. It builds character, tests fortitude and mental toughness, moves you to the present moment and is an "honor" game like no other. AJ and Janet Berens are memorialized representing the best individual awards for men and women (best scratch). The MSI cup goes to the best two-person team with handicap, honoring the roots of the tournament. From 1993 through 2024, the tournament continues to bring friends and family together to celebrate, compete and build lasting memories. This will be the 20th Golf tournament played over the years! 1993 - 2009, 2013, 2021, 2024

The 2024 MSI
The 2024 MSI returns to the majestic Links at Greystone located in Walworth, NY. https://www.greystonelinks.com/
The Links at Greystone has a championship-caliber layout worthy of Golf Digest's coveted 4.5 Star Rating. Only a handful of other golf courses across the country have ever been rated better.
The rolling, forested land is ideal for golf, soaked with ponds and wetlands. Without any homes in sight, peace & solitude are your only playing partners. Architect Craig Schreiner shaped massive greens with multiple tiers and wild swinging breaks. Missing the green in the right spot is almost always better than hitting the green in the wrong one.
