ABOUT THE
Memorial Amateur
Memorial Amateur insights include 15+ years of scoring trends, past champions like Cameron Champ, and hole-by-hole performance breakdowns at Ancil Hoffman.
The Memorial Amateur Championship, held each Memorial Day Weekend at Ancil Hoffman Golf Course in Carmichael, California, is one of the premier independent amateur events in the U.S.
Founded by Vietnam veteran John Rochelle, the tournament blends patriotic tradition with elite competition. Over 54 holes of stroke play, including a 36-hole cut, the Memorial Amateur consistently attracts a national field of top-tier players ready to test their game on one of Northern California’s most demanding public courses.
But what truly sets this event apart is the depth of data and insight available behind the scenes.
