CGA Tournament Programs

The Carolinas are home to hundreds of golf tournaments each year that appeal to a wide range of skill levels. The CGA administers its own calendar of championships, considered one of the strongest tournament programs in the country, as well as USGA qualifiers for national events. Whether you're a scratch golfer looking to qualify for the U.S. Open or Carolinas Amateur Championship, or a mid-level handicap wanting to participate in one of the CGA's individual or team events, there is an opportunity for you to play. These events are open to members of CGA Member Clubs who have up-to-date CGA/USGA handicap indexes.
