Magnolia Amateur

The Magnolia Amateur is an exclusive amateur golf tournament held annually at Hattiesburg Country Club in Mississippi. The event features a limited field of 156 players divided into a collegiate division and a mid-amateur division. The format is stroke play over 54 holes, conducted across three days with a cut to the low 60 players and ties after 36 holes. Both individual and college team competitions are held, with the team event based on the combined scores of two players over the three rounds. The overall champion can come from either division. Players are reviewed and accepted by the Tournament Committee to qualify for the event, emphasizing its selective nature. For contact details, the Mississippi Golf Association runs the event.

For specific event inquiries, the event manager is Kyle Ramey, who can be contacted via email (from Golf Genius listing) though the exact email was not directly provided, and phone contact is typically via the Mississippi Golf Association's main line on their website.
