All About the 'World Am'
A unique golf tournament experience you cannot get anywhere else. With around 3,200 players competing each year, there is a different feeling when standing on the first tee than you get when playing in your weekly league or local Am Tour event.

Flighted by Gender, Age and Handicap
Handicap ranges within the flights are very small. In addition to the net flights, we offer gross divisions for women, men, senior men, and mid senior men who prefer medal play. Our motto is, we can make your experience as much or as little like a PGA TOUR event as you want!
A lot to win and a lot of winners
Paying out the top 5 in each flight means 300+ winners! With a great prize sponsor in the PGA TOUR Superstore, we’re dishing out great gift card prizes to those top finishers in each of the 64 flights! Even if you didn’t play your best, there are daily contest prizes each day. Not to mention we give away $30,000 in random drawing prizes throughout the year! We even give away prizes to entire flights randomly! Bottom line: we want as many people as possible to leave a winner.
