The Memorial Tournament showcases some of the best professional golfers in the world, and it happens right here in our backyard. Founded and hosted by golf legend and Columbus-native Jack Nicklaus, it’s played each year at Muirfield Village Golf Club in Dublin.
The 2024 tournament will take place from Monday, June 3-Sunday, June 9, which means it’s time to tee up the details.

Watch
Hanna, here. I had dinner at Cento in German Village for the first time last night, and the Italian food and patio ambiance was top tier. Pro tip: The patio is first come, first serve, so try to arrive as close to 5 p.m. as you can for the best chance at outdoor seating. Make a reservation for indoors.
