Established at The Golf Club of Georgia in 1998, The Georgia Cup annually brings together the reigning United States Amateur and British Amateur Champion for an 18-hole match in advance of the Masters.
The 13th annual Georgia Cup Match will feature the youngest champions in history, with United States Amateur Champion Byeong-Hun "Ben" An, 17, of South Korea, meeting British Amateur Champion Matteo Manassero, 16, of Italy, March 30, 2010, at 1:05pm on The Golf Club of Georgia's Creekside Course.
The 2009 Georgia Cup Match was won by U.S. Amateur Champion Danny Lee of New Zealand, who defeated British Amateur Champion Reinier Saxton of The Netherlands, 2&1, on the Lakeside Course, giving the U.S. Amateur Champions at 7-5 lead in the all-time series.
Shown on The Golf Channel and Comcast Sports Southeast, The Georgia Cup has grown from an intimate Club event to a unique amateur championship known on both sides of the Atlantic.
The Georgia Cup benefits the Yates Scholarship Fund and the Moncrief Turfgrass Scholarships of the Georgia State Golf Foundation.
All Georgia Cup participants and Georgia Cup Honorary Captains are guests of the Club during Georgia Cup Week and become Honorary Lifetime Members of The Golf Club of Georgia.
