2026 AGT Series National Championship

Big Cedar Lodge | October 25-28, 2026

We are raising the standard of amateur team competition.

Both the Gross and Net National Champions will receive 2027 Masters Tournament badges.

A national title.

A trip to Augusta.

The AGT Series National Championship returns for its sixth edition—the culmination of a season built around great venues, meaningful competition, and the best two-player team experience in amateur golf.

Teams earning entry through official AGT Series qualifiers received priority access. Registration is now open to eligible amateur teams while availability remains.

The season concludes at Big Cedar. The reward extends far beyond it.
