AmateurGolf.com 2026 Winter Invitational on the Monterey Peninsula

The Winter Invitational is open to all players who satisfy the handicap requirements. Join us at the completely renovated San Juan Oaks Golf Club. We are proud to bring this gorgeous and challenging course designed by Fred Couples back into the AmateurGolf.com Tour rota! We'll play threesomes in split tees, so everyone will get a morning tee time and play at a great pace. San Juan Oaks has set a time par of 4.5 hours or better for their public play (in foursomes) and we'll plan on doing that in December. If you're not sure you can keep up, please don't register.

This is a gross competition with Championship and Senior divisions.
