At AmateurGolf.com,
tournaments are our business. The primary
mission of the company is to provide
information about thousands of amateur
tournaments across the globe, but we run a
pretty good event ourselves. Some of the
things you can expect from any of the events
on the AmateurGolf.com Tour are
quality courses, a competitive field, web-based
administration, and a team who is dedicated to
"getting it right." Following is some basic
information about the Tour:
- Benefits of Membership: The AmateurGolf.com
Tour is open to all players,
however members of our website are provided
with substantial discounts for each tournament
and advance notice of early savings offers. For
most events the single year membership fee of
$49 is paid for with the member savings. Other
membership benefits include 16 complimentary
issues of
Golfweek Magazine, unlimited access to our
website's tournament listings, rankings, player
profile, and more.
- Non-member registrations
should be phoned in to our office at 760-929-
9297.
- Eligibility and Divisions: Tournaments are open to
men and women; the
minimum age for the
Senior Scratch division is
50 as of the first day
of the tournament. Players
should be at least
14 years of age to enter;
younger players will
be allowed pending
AmateurGolf.com approval based on their past
tournament experience. If there
are enough women in a
tournament a separate
women's division will be
scored, otherwise
women can player either
the Net Division, or
the Championship Division
from the same tees
as the men.
- Handicaps: The maximum individual
handicap index of 18.0 is
meant as a guideline
for entry, not a hard-and-
fast limit. Players
who are concerned about
handicap
fluctuations can enter the
tournament without
worry, but a maximum index
of 18.0 will be
utilized in computing their Net
score.
- Players who have a
handicap of less than 5.5
(but no less than 2.0) who
prefer to play in
the Net Division may
choose to do so by
selecting "Net Division"
when they register.
- An official USGA handicap
index is required for entry, and Californians may obtain a handicap by joining
the AmateurGolf.com NCGA or SCGA Associate Club. (Login now to
setup your account by selecting "Associate
Club" under membership type -- existing
members who wish to upgrade should call 760-
929-9297)
- Posting Scores for Handicap: (New for 2020) For all AmateurGolf.com Tour events except for the Two Man Links Championship, we will post scores to GHIN for handicap purposes after each round. Therefore it is important for players to have their current GHIN in their member profile.
- Caddies are allowed at all AmateurGolf.com tournaments.
