Princes Autumn Championships (Stay & Play)

Tour: O35tour

Rounds: 3

The o35tour is a golf tour for mid-amateur and senior golfers aged 35 and over with a WHS handicap index of 18 or below. It runs around 14 events a year: strokeplay competitions at UK courses plus tournaments in Portugal and Spain. Formats vary from single-day 18-hole and 36-hole events to multi-day 54- and 72-hole tournaments, including some recognised WAGR events. The tour runs an Order of Merit from November to October, split into four categories: Mid-Amateur Gross, Mid-Amateur Net, Senior Gross, and Senior Net. Points are awarded by finishing position and event length, so results across different event sizes can be compared on the same scale. Season membership costs £80 and gets you reduced entry fees for each event plus eligibility for Order of Merit points. The top three in each OOM category qualify for the tour finals in Spain, which includes a practice round. Events award both nett and gross prizes, and the calendar includes the British, Scottish and Welsh Mid-Amateur championships. Overall, it's a structured setup for mid-amateur and senior golfers to compete against others in their age and handicap range, with a mix of UK and overseas events.
