Tennessee Golf Association
The TGA was organized on June 5, 1914 to "promote the game of golf in the state of Tennessee."
In 1914, the Tennessee Golf Association (TGA) was organized at Memphis Country Club as an association of five private clubs. The objective of the Association, as stated in its Constitution, "shall be to promote the game of golf in Tennessee." From these small origins the TGA has become an association which now includes over 220 member clubs, courses, and organizations, comprised of over 37,000 individuals from across the state.

🏆 Get Use-d to it 🏆
Clay Uselton is back in the winner’s circle 21 years after his last win to capture his fourth TGA title and first Senior Amateur Championship! Steady play throughout the tournament had the Tullahoma resident keeping the field at bay to earn him the win at Memphis Country Club!
He reflected on his 50-year TGA career after his win, remembering the first event he played as a 12-year-old in the Junior Amateur at Fox Den.

Buzz Fly with the unprecedented FOUR-PEAT at the Tennessee Super Senior Amateur Championship. He saved his best for last during a tournament best 71 at Memphis Country Club to climb the leaderboard and capture his 8th TGA Title and 4th straight at this event.
