San Diego City Amateur

The San Diego City Amateur Golf Championship is a prominent annual event held at the iconic Torrey Pines Golf Course, known for its stunning ocean views and challenging layout. This prestigious tournament typically takes place during the summer, attracting amateur golfers from across the region. It’s meticulously organized and run entirely by the professional staff at the Torrey Pines pro-shop. The competition features a unique format with all rounds conducted as a shotgun start. This means that players begin their rounds simultaneously from different holes, with morning sessions starting at 7:00 AM and afternoon sessions at 1:00 PM.
