KC Royals Enjoy a Round of Golf at Big Cedar Courses

With only a few days off in the month of August, eight Kansas City Royals players took the trip to Branson to visit Big Cedar Lodge last Thursday, August 10.

While finding a golf course isn’t an uncommon thing for the players to do on their off day, according to Royals All-Star second baseman Whit Merrifield, the visit to Big Cedar was the first for many.

“Whit was the planner, and he asked if I wanted to come out and play this incredible course. I couldn’t turn it down,” Royals pitcher Brady Singer said. “We get one off day every few weeks, and this is a heck of a way to spend it.”

The players played Mountain Top before having lunch at the Mountain Top Grill and then played Payne’s Valley in the afternoon. Merrifield said he’d played golf at Big Cedar before then, but he hadn’t played the complete Payne’s Valley because construction wasn’t complete.
