The Snedeker Memorial returns March 12–15, 2026, bringing an elite field of invited mid-amateur players to the historic Lakewood Club’s Dogwood Course in Point Clear, Alabama. The 54-hole championship blends individual stroke play with a unique team component while honoring the legacy of the Snedeker family and supporting youth initiatives along the Gulf Coast.

Organized by the Snedeker Memorial Family Foundation, the event pays tribute to Larry and Candice Snedeker, whose love of golf helped inspire the careers of their sons Brandt Snedeker, a nine-time PGA Tour winner and Ryder Cup player, and Haymes Snedeker, an accomplished amateur golfer and tournament chairman.

Championship Format

The tournament features a 54-hole individual stroke play competition with a simultaneous two-player team competition. Competitors are invited mid-amateurs who may either nominate a partner for committee approval or be paired by tournament officials.

The format encourages both individual excellence and team camaraderie, making the event one of the more distinctive early-season gatherings on the mid-amateur calendar.
