  Earlier this year we announced that we’d be hosting the first-ever Virtual U.S. Amateur in August, and with August coming up quickly we’ve been getting a lot of questions about this! Here are some details to get you ready to compete:

  1. The Virtual U.S. Amateur IS happening – starting Aug 1!
  2. There will be 2 parts of the tournament, similar to the Virtual U.S. Open, starting with a 3-week Qualifier tournament
  3. The top 32 players from the Qualifier will be put into 2 Championship Bracket tournaments (16 players in each) to compete until there are 2 final bracket winners
  4. These final 2 players will get a trip to compete in a live final head-to-head match at Topgolf in Atlanta

  Pretty cool.  I'd imagine played at Pebble?

  Hopefully open to the world.

  Would be great if that match was live streamed or at the very least recorded so all could watch / eventually watch.
