  • Handbook Scga-Amateur V4c.Pdf
    FROM THE PRESIDENT DEAR COMPETITORS, Welcome to the 118th playing of the SCGA Amateur Champion- ship. Surprisingly, the Coachella Valley, home to 120 golf courses, has never hosted the SCGA Amateur. Yes, it’s appropriate and long overdue. With fairways lined by large Eucalyptus trees and elevated greens protected by strategic bunkers, the Dinah Shore Tournament Course has provided a fair, but challenging test for many championships. Previous winners include Johnny Dawson (1942, 44 & 45), local standout Scott McGihon (2000, 2005 and 2006), Alan Geiberger (1956 and 1959), Beau Hossler (2013, 2014), Tiger Woods, and Patrick Cantlay. Last July at Barona Creek, Rico Hoey scored a record 19 under par 269 besting Dan Erickson (273), Clay Feagler (274), P. J. Samiere (275) and Hide Yoshihara (276). After competing in our championship, many participants have subse-quently enjoyed successful careers on the PGA Tour. My sincere congratulations on qualifying to compete on one of the Coachella Valley’s finest courses. Our Desmond Muirhead designed course opened in 1971 and in 1976 hosted the World Cup, won by Seve Ballesteros and Manuel Pinero. Mission Hills has hosted the AJGA Desert Junior annually since 1982. The first stage of LPGA qualifying is held here in the early fall. And 2017 marked the 35th playing of what is now the ANA Inspiration, the longest running LPGA major. Gorgeous views of the San Jacinto and San Gorgonio mountains and subtle slopes toward the Salton Sea add to the mystique. And there’s more for nature lovers: the sightings and sounds of red tailed hawks, vermillion flycatchers, Costas hummingbirds, and the occasional coyote.

Tijeras Creek GC is the home course of SCGA President Bill Cunerty, who is also the golf coach at Saddleback College in nearby Mission Viejo.

Accompanying him early in December 1923 were his wife and a chauffeur, who drove the Hagens' Cadillac southward from Philadelphia to St. Petersburg. It was Hagen's first automobile trip along the Atlantic coast, and he immensely enjoyed the scenery, especially in the Carolinas. He had traveled the same path many times by railroad but found that it "did not compare in any way, shape or form with the motor car" as a means of transportation. After he arrived in St.
