Tour: NCG Top 100s Tour

Rounds: 1

The NCG Top 100s Tour is the UK's leading amateur golf tour, featuring exclusively courses ranked in the National Club Golfer's definitive Top 100s lists. All events are individual stableford competitions open to male and female golfers with a handicap limit of 24.0. The tour operates extensively across England, Scotland, Wales, and Europe, with events ranging from single-day tournaments to multi-event packages. All event scores are handicap-qualifying and sent to the golfer's governing body via Golf Genius. Entry fees vary by venue and tee time, typically ranging from £50 to £250 per person, with group discounts available for four or more golfers. Each event offers substantial prizes courtesy of headline sponsors TaylorMade, with first place receiving £250 TaylorMade vouchers, second place £100, and third place £50. Nearest the pin prizes are also available. Event packages include pre-round breakfast and post-round meals. Tour membership is optional but provides a 20% discount on event fees and welcomes gifts including branded apparel and golf balls. Independent golfers without official handicaps can participate but are not eligible for prize money unless they hold a handicap with a governing body. A season-long Order of Merit system ranks competitors, with each player's best eight results counting toward their standing. The top 44 golfers qualify for the Grand Final held at Northamptonshire County Golf Club in October. The tour also operates a separate Summer Match Play competition held from May through September, culminating in finals at Alwoodley Golf Club. The combined structure of individual strokeplay events, accessible pricing, quality course selection, and year-round competition opportunities attracts a substantial amateur golfer community across the UK and beyond.
