BETTER-BALL CHAMPIONSHIP

The 1990's saw the game of golf grow tremendously leaving most State and Regional Golf Associations with the task of adding new tournaments such as the Better-Ball and Senior Better-Ball Championships as well as a Middle Amateur Championship.

In 1990, Hillcrest Country Club was the site for the inaugural Better-Ball Championship. Guy Costin and Tom Shallow of Philadelphia Country Club won by two shots over Sean Knapp and Jeff Scroeder of St. Jude Golf Club. The format of this championship is 36-holes of stroke play with the lowest score winner.
