BIRMINGHAM, AL (April 24, 2017) - Collin Morikawa, the 20-year old Cal golfer, has been named Amateur of the Month (March) by the Southern Golf Association (SGA) after an impressive showing in multiple events.

Morikawa then went on to finish 2nd in the Southern Highlands Intercollegiate after losing in a playoff to Grant Hirschman of Oklahoma.

Now in its 14th season, notable recipients have been Bill Haas, Michelle Wie, Hunter Mahan, Ryan Moore, J. B. Holmes, Webb Simpson, Rhys Davies, Kyle Stanley, Kevin Fortin-Simard, Rickie Fowler, Danny Lee, Matthew Fitzpatrick, Alice Hewson, and more recently Lee McCoy & Aaron Wise.
