Past Mid-Amateur Champions
Inaugural Mid-Amateur Champion
The First Name on a New Trophy. Gigi Higgins of Cape Coral, Florida is all smiles planning the font for the engraver for her seven letters on the virgin Betty Probasco Mid-Amateur Championship Trophy. She wanted her picture with the lush fairways and greens she conquered in five days of elite mid-amateur competition in view for the entire world to see. Note how the Championship Medal is already around her neck an instant reminder of a special week.
