What is the U.S. Mid-Amateur?

How does this relate to the U.S. Amateur?

Postoak,

The US Mid-Amatuer and US Amatuer are USGA sponsored tournments. A handicap is required to qualify. Below is the handicap index for USGA tournaments.

Handicap Index Limits:
Open - 1.4
Senior Open - 3.4
Women's Open - 4.4
Amateur Public Links - 8.4
Women's Amateur Public Links - No Limit
Junior Amateur - 6.4
Girls' Junior - 18.4
Women's Amateur - 5.4
Amateur - 2.4
Mid-Amateur - 3.4
Women's Mid-Amateur - 9.4
Senior Women's Amateur - 18.4
Senior Amateur - 7.4

There are qualifing tournaments for these events. Go to www.usga.com for more details

This list of events goes to the winner:

Mid Amateur victory earns exemptions into the Masters tournament, the U.S. amateur and Public Links Championships, as well as a five year exemption into the finals of the U.S. Open qualifying, and a ten year exemption into the U.S. Mid Amateur

GolfBald - Thanks for the reply and link! At that link I found THIS page which tells it all:

http://www.usmidam.org/2002/history/index.html

So, the Mid-Amateur is for golfers over 25.
