2024 Silicon Valley Amateur
Stanford University Golf Course
Jan. 8, 2024 – Jan. 9, 2024
The Silicon Valley Amateur is the first AmateurGolf.com tournament to have on its past winner's list, a TWO-TIME MAJOR champion. That would be Collin Morikawa, who won the 2016 title. Just over four years later, he won the PGA Championship just up the road at TPC Harding Park in San Francisco. He followed that up by winning the 2022 Open Championship.
Multiple PGA Tour star and Morikawa's fellow 2023 USA Ryder Cup team member Max Homa also won the Silicon Valley Amateur in 2011.
For 2024, the tournament is moving to a new venue -- Stanford University Golf Course. Tournament players will relish competing at a course normally reserved for university students and faculty. Please note that we will play on Monday and Tuesday and expect this event will fill very quickly.
2024 San Diego Amateur (South)
Steele Canyon Golf Club
Jan. 8, 2024 – Jan. 9, 2024
The San Diego Amateur now has a second location, the historic San Diego Country Club. Players will be treated to a very walkable private club that has hosted USGA and major collegiate events and where legends like Billy Casper and Mickey Wright called home.
2024 Pacific Grove City Championship
Pacific Grove Golf Links
Feb. 17, 2024 – Feb. 18, 2024
New event (started in 2021) at the wonderful Pacific Grove Golf Links, known to many as "The Poor Man's Pebble Beach." That's because the back nine plays right along the Pacific Ocean in an out-and-back links-style layout.
If you haven't played this Monterey Peninsula gem, entering this tournament with a friend or relative is the perfect way to experience it.
