Ruth Middleton Cup

The Ruth Middleton Cup is an annual women's amateur golf tournament in New Zealand, typically held at Matamata Golf Club. Organized by New Zealand Golf Inc., the event is played over 54 holes using a stroke play format. The field usually consists of around 78 to 90 players, with competitors accepted based on a handicap limit, prioritizing those with the lowest handicaps who register by the entry deadline. The tournament often coincides with the Daph Brooks Masters, and includes both individual and foursomes competitions on occasion. Entrants must meet eligibility requirements published in advance and submit their entries through the official Golf New Zealand registration process.
