Toyota Tour Cup

Membership for the Toyota Tour Cup is invitation only, which can be attained by Qualifying School, Players Tour Series Points or local qualifiers. All Toyota Tour Cup events are nationally ranked by Junior Golf Scoreboard, as well as recognized by AJGA Performance Based Entry stars. The Toyota Tour Cup was established in 1999 to provide an alternative opportunity to top junior golfers to hone their skills in a competitive environment that was local. With the generous support of Toyota and the Southern California Toyota Dealers Association for the past 20+ years, we have been able to provide professionally run competitive events for juniors. The Toyota Tour Cup has proven to be a training ground for some of the best collegiate and professional golfers in our country. Toyota Tour Cup alumni include Rickie Fowler, Lizette Salas, Xander Schauffele, Mo Martin, Patrick Cantlay, Matthew Wolff, Haley Moore, Danielle Kang, Max Homa, Angel Yin, Collin Morikawa, and many others.

Experience Level

The Toyota Tour Cup Series will feature a tournament schedule of 26 events, with approximately 6 of these events having special exclusions (i.e. invitational and/or exempt criteria). A few events throughout the year will be expanded field events that will consist of 90 boys and 45 girl player fields. These events will take place at 36-hole facilities or split sites with the boys competing on one golf course, while the girls will be compete on the other.

How To Gain Entry Into The TTC

1. Toyota Tour Cup Qualifying School: 36-hole qualifying event for a year-long exemption to the Toyota Tour Cup.  Ten percent (10%) of the final field size (boys and girls) will earn an exemption. No age divisions. The first Qualifying School will be held in June and the second will be held in December.  *Points WILL NOT BE awarded for Qualifying School.

 

 

2. Local Qualifiers: We will be hosting a local Qualifier for (15) different TTC events.  

 

 

*Players Tour Points WILL BE awarded for local qualifiers*

From each qualifier, the top five (5) boys and top three (3) girls will earn exemptions to a specific Toyota Tour Cup tournament. The TTC event name will be listed on the qualifier page.  Players will not have the option to transfer their exemption for a different TTC event.  If they choose to forgo their spot in the TTC event that they qualified for, that spot will go to the next TTC member on the waiting list.

  • Boys who finish in the top 15 of the TTC event will earn an exemption for the remainder of the current season plus the following season.  *For example, if a boy finishes between 11th and 15th at a Toyota Tour Cup event in March, he will retain a TTC exemption for the remainder of the spring and the entire summer season.  His TTC exemption will expire at the end of August.* 
  • Girls who finish in the top 10 of the TTC event will earn an exemption for the remainder of the current season plus the following season.  *For example, if a girl finishes between 7th and 10th at a Toyota Tour Cup event in March, she will retain a TTC exemption for the rema
    inder of the spring and the entire summer season.  Her TTC exemption will expire at the end of August.*
  • All boys who finish in the top 10 and girls who finish in the top 6 will earn their exemptions for the current year and remain exempt for the following year as well.  For the TTC Extended Player Fields we will extend the exemption to the top 15 boys and top 10 girls.  

3. Players Tour Series Championships: Toyota Tour Cup exemptions will be extended to the following:

  • The top 4 overall girls and top 6 overall boys plus ties in the Spring, Summer, and Fall Series Championships will earn a one year TTC exemption.

**For the Spring Series, exemptions will run through the current calendar year plus the spring of the following year. The Summer 

Series will be exempt for the Fall Series and the next calendar year. The Fall Series will gain exemption into the next calendar year.**

4. Players Tour 2-Day Series Champions: Any player that wins a Players Tour 2-Day Championship will be awarded a TTC e

xemption for the following two seasons.  For example, if a player wins a PT 2-Day Championship in the Spring Season, they will receive a Toyota Tour Cup exemption for the Summer and Fall Seasons of that same year.

5. Players Tour Overall Points Race: The top 3 overall girls and top 3 overall boys in the Players Tour Overall Points Race at the end of the year will earn an exemption for the following TTC year.

TTC Exemption Conditions

The Series Championship TTC exemptions will be given to the top 4 girls plus ties and top 6 boys plus ties.  If a player is already fully exempt for TTC (meaning that the new TTC exemption will not extend the life of that player’s TTC membership), we will drop down a maximum of two players in the standings for that Series Championship event.

Priority Registration:  Toyota Tour Cup has a priority registration system in place. If a player competes in a TTC event, they will not have priority for the following TTC event. Players that did not play in that previous event will have priority for 24 hours over players that played previously. After the 24 hours, all remaining players will be filtered in based on registration times only. If you were registered for the previous event and canceled within one week of the event date, you will still forfeit your priority for the next event.

Guidelines For Exemption Into The TTC

  • Boys Must Place In Top 10 (Plus Ties) To Retain TTC Membership
  • Girls Must Place In Top 6 (Plus Ties) To Retain TTC Membership
  • For Extended Player Field events, starting in 2025, Girls will need to place top 10 plus ties and Boys will need to place top 15 plus ties in order to retain their TTC exempt status for the following year.
  • Toyota Tour Cup Player Of The Year Recipients Will Receive Free Membership For The Following Year.
  • Players Tour Player Of The Year Points Will Be Awarded At One Day Qualifiers.
  • Spring Q-School: Top 10% of Final Field Size Receive Membership For One Full Year From Date Earned.
  • Fall Q-School: Top 10% of Final Field Size Receive Membership For Following Year.
