Entries Open For Georgia Mid-Amateur Championship
MARIETTA, Ga. – Entries are now being accepted for the 26th annual Georgia Mid-Amateur Championship, which takes place May 18-20 at Country Club of Columbus. This event is open to male amateur golfers age 25 and older as of the first day of the event, who are GSGA members and Georgia residents.
The format of the event is 54 holes stroke play. The field will be cut to the low 70 and ties after 36 holes. Last year, Mark Strickland of Woodstock sank a one-foot birdie putt on the final hole to avoid a playoff and capture the championship by a single stroke over Baxley’s Adam Thomas and McDonough’s Dave Womack.
Eighteen-hole qualifying rounds for the Georgia Mid-Amateur Championship begin April 9 and run through April 23 at six sites located throughout the state.
