As the Elite Amateur Golf Series—a competition comprised of seven of the top amateur events in the United States—prepares for its second year of competition, it will be receiving partnership support from two of golf’s heavy hitters.
Titleist and FootJoy announced today that it will be sponsoring year No. 2 of the series that has taken the splintered world of amateur golf and streamlined it to better benefit the players.

The seven-tournament series awards players with PGA Tour starts and U.S. Golf Association exemptions. In fact, 2022 Elite Amateur Series Cup winner Caleb Surratt made his PGA Tour debut at the Butterfield Bermuda Championship and made the cut by firing a 64 in the second round.

The stories of these amateur golfers are ones of dedication and perseverance as they chase their dream.
In conjunction with the sponsorship announcement, Titleist released this documentary on their YouTube page entitled, “Making Their Mark: Inside the Elite Amateur Golf Series.”
With the support of these two titans of the golf industry in Titleist and FootJoy, the series will be able to expand its reach and afford more opportunities to amateur golfers.
Many of these events date back over 100 years and golfers ranging from legends like Jack Nicklaus, Tiger Woods, and Phil Mickelson to stars of today like Collin Morikawa, Will Zalatoris, and Rickie Fowler.
