Carolinas Golf
Players of the Year 

The Richard S. Tufts Awards were created in 1997 to honor the Carolinas' amateur golfers who had exceptional individual tournament performances over the preceding year. Tufts served on the CGA Executive Committee from 1926 to 1964, and served as President from 1931 through 1933.

The awards are given to the top golfer based on the CGA amateur rankings at the end of the calendar year in seven categories: Girls', Boys', Women's, Men's, Senior Women's, Senior Men's, and Super Senior Men's.
