This week marked the 36th playing of the U.S. Mid-Amateur Championship. A field of 264 regional qualifiers assembled at Stonewall Golf Club in Elverson, PA in hopes of raising the Robert T. Jones Jr. Memorial Mid-Amateur Trophy.

This year, among this elite field of dedicated amateur golfers, 219 players trusted a Titleist Pro V1 or Pro V1x golf ball for their success. That's more than nine times the nearest competitor with 23 and more than four times all competitors combined.

Titleist also led the field across most major club categories including hybrids (78), and iron sets (80). Titleist Vokey Design wedges also topped the approach, sand and lob wedges (431) category and Scotty Cameron putters (97) were the top choice in the putter category.

Stonewall’s Old Course (6,870 yards, par-70) and North Course (6,711 yards, par-70) each hosted two days of stroke play qualifying as well as the rounds of match play competition for the top-64 finishers. For the first time in USGA history, both courses were used in a 36-hole championship match.

The USGA inaugurated the Mid-Amateur in 1981, a national championship for golfers at least 25 years of age with handicaps not exceeding 3.4. The Mid-Am was created to provide a forum for those post-college golfers who have careers and/or families, but still seek national and international caliber competition.

Congratulations to all the competitors who honored the tradition of amateur golf this week!
