US Masters

   

from usgo.org

Sponsored by the Ing Foundation, this eight player tournament pits top amateurs against American professional players.

Originally known as the North American Masters Tournament, the NAMT was the first "real" online tournament, and remained the largest Internet-based tournament until it was discontinued in 2003. With up to ten certified professional players living in or hailing from North America, the NAMT gave them a rare opportunity for competitive play. Starting in 2000, the winners of the US Open and the North American Ing Cup entered the field. The best-of-three playoff was a prominent highlight of each year's US Go Congress.
