2008 Nature Valley Amateur
Amateur Events…PGA TOUR Experiences®

Experience the game as it’s played inside the ropes with fast greens, Sunday pin placements, high rough and fairways as narrow as a country road.  Test your skills and tee it up at one or more of the 20 courses within the exclusive TPC Network throughout the country.  Qualifying tournaments start in May and run through September. 

Qualifying Tournament winners will play for the Championship at the legendary TPC Sawgrass, home of the iconic 17th island green and THE PLAYERS Stadium Course in October.   Championship weekend includes a practice round, a pairings dinner, and a championship round. 

Amateurs and past Nature Valley Amateur participants with a USGA registered handicap of 24 or under are eligible to participate.

Don’t take our word for it, read the comments from two of the 2007 finalists….

“Just wanted to make sure that you and all involved know how great an experience the 2 days at Sawgrass were for this avid golf fan and everyday amateur player.

All aspects will be unforgettable: the name plaques on the tees and the lockers, the special practice area, the caddies with our names, the dinner and the speakers, the "interview", the tour of the clubhouse (champions locker room and players lounge was a major highlight!), the score signs on the course, the venue (wow!) and of course all the people who put it all together and made it happen!

Thanks to all, for paying attention to the details, as everyone's hard work made it very special for Pat & I. Please make sure to pass this along to all the people …. who were involved.

My only disappointment was how I played on Saturday, but the experience far outweighs any golfing "hangover". I was a "winner" for being there! For a couple of days, you made me feel like a pro! “

Thanks again,

“…I just wanted to say thank you for a great weekend at Sawgrass.  Tim, Dirk and myself had a fantastic time (my threesome) at the inaugural Nature Valley Championship. I felt like a touring pro. Our own practice range with name cards, caddies with our names tags, tour of the club house, photographers, fantastic dinner, interviews on camera, the whole package.  If I was asked, ‘What has been the most memorable part of your life’ I would reply, ’the Nature Valley Championship at Sawgrass.’  My brother and a few friends who attended were in awe of the first class attention we received. I thank you again for the opportunity to participate in your tournament. Thanks again for a great week-end, I'm still smiling.
