Exact number of qualifiers for each site will be based on the number of entries and quality of the field.
The Last Chance qualifier is open to all players, including those who played in a Local Qualifier and did not advance. The Last Chance Qualifier will be held the day before the event at Edgebrook GC in Brookings. Men and Senior Men on Wednesday, July 10, and Women and Senior Women on Thursday, July 11.
An additional qualifying opportunity is through the SDGA Mid-Amateur Championship on June 1-2 at Moccasin Creek Country Club. The top three finishers (not already exempt) will earn an exemption into the Championship.
At the Championship, all players who qualify will be guaranteed three matches using the POD format (like the WGC Match Play). POD winners advance to play a traditional match play bracket to determine the Champion.
