FERNANDINA BEACH, Fla. --- Five major golf tournaments scheduled for September, October and November at Amelia National Golf & Country Club in Fernandina Beach are expected to draw more than 1,000 players and spectators says Todd McDonald, head PGA golf pro at Amelia National Golf & County Club.

On Sept. 10, Amelia National will host the USGA Senior Amateur Qualifier, a regional tournament to qualify top golfers for the USGA Senior Amateur tour.

McDonald said USGA will eventually qualify 96 players, some of which will emerge USGA’s best senior amateur in the U.S.

On Oct. 13, Amelia National will host the CW Vision golf tournament to fete 20 top players who helped raise money for CW Vision, a not-for-profit Fernandina Beach organization that provides free vision care for poor families.

McDonald said the golfers will play 36 holes, with lunch served after 18 holes and hors d’oeuvres when the tourney ends.

Eighty to 100 players are expected to compete in the third annual Toys for Tots Tournament at Amelia National on Oct. 17.

Amelia National will host the second annual Sutton Place Behavioral Health Golf Tournament on Nov. 5 to raise money for Sutton Place, a Fernandina Beach charitable organization that helps families with substance abuse related problems.

McDonald said last year’s Sutton Place Behavioral Health golf tournament drew more than 70 players.

On Nov. 12, Amelia National will host its second annual Knights of Columbus Golf Tournament. Last year the Knights of Columbus tournament attracted more than 80 players.
