Registration Updates for TGA Championships

As we continue to work through these uncertain times during the COVID-19 crisis, the Texas Golf Association made the decision to delay the registration process for several upcoming events.

Registration is scheduled to open for the following championships on May 26:

• 99th Women’s Texas Amateur
• Texas Father-Son
• Texas Mid-Amateur

The TGA also recently announced the 111th Texas Amateur was rescheduled for Aug. 6-9 because of continued safety concerns around the COVID-19 virus. Originally scheduled for mid-June, the 72-hole, stroke play championship still will be held at Boot Ranch Golf Club in Fredericksburg.

We want all TGA Members to know that every decision during the COVID-19 pandemic is made with the health and well-being of the entire TGA Family and general public in mind. Most importantly, we want everyone to be safe and healthy.

The TGA will continue to rely on recommendations from the Center for Disease Control (CDC) and World Health Organization (WHO), as well as state and local government guidelines in the locations where championships and qualifiers are to be conducted and in determining schedule considerations for other TGA events.

We urge you to stay safe and follow expert guidance from the CDC, WHO and your local government. Please also refer to the TGA Resource Hub for links to important information related to the COVID-19 outbreak.

We will continue to provide updates as needed.
