Metropolitan Amateur Series

First shots fired at The Landings

The pandemic postponed golf season took the wraps off with the playing of the first 2020 Amateur Series event at The Landings at Spirit in Chesterfield, Mo. A pristine day greeted 51 amateurs, eager to put the ball in the air and compete in the Series, which is sponsored by Imperial Headwear. The inaugural 18-hole tournament proved to be quite a horse race, with three strokes or less separating first and second place in four of the five divisions. The Metropolitan Amateur Series is comprised of six events throughout the summer, designed to accommodate players of all skill levels and ages. Events are bracketed into five divisions: Scratch Open, Net Open, Senior Open, Senior Net and Super Senior Net (65 and older). At season’s end, Oct. 3-4, a two-day invitational championship will be conducted at the Quarry. Series members will earn points during the six -event season to earn a spot in the championship final.
