PREVIEW: 2025 Cleveland Amateur Qualifying

Greater Cleveland Amateur Championship logoIf you are not exempt, it’s time to play your way into the 2025 Greater Cleveland Amateur Championship, and perhaps win a Cleveland Metroparks Course Championship in the process!

Cleveland Metroparks Golf will conduct six 2-day, 36-hole Course Championships + Cleveland Am Qualifiers this year over the course of five weekends. It’s a way for scratch amateur players to test their competitive skills while trying to advance to CMG’s biggest event of the golf season, the Cleveland Amateur.

The defending champion for the Cleveland Am is Lakewood’s Lucas Liberatore, who won by three shots after rounds of 71 – 74 – 70 at Sleepy Hollow in 2024. RECAP >

This year, the 54-hole Greater Cleveland Amateur Championship will be played at both Manakiki Golf Course in Willoughby Hills (Fri Aug 8 and Sun Aug 10) and Sleepy Hollow Golf Course in Brecksville (Sat Aug 9).

So pick your favorite Cleveland Metroparks course — or enter at more than one course if you’d like! — and try your hand at winning a Course Championship while earning a spot in the Cleveland Am!
