Eisenhower Trophy

Amateur team golf tournament


Amateur team golf tournament

The Eisenhower Trophy (World Men's Amateur Team Championships) is the biennial World Amateur Team Championship for men organized by the International Golf Federation. Since the tournament was first played in 1958, it is named after Dwight D. Eisenhower, the President of the United States at the time, who was a keen amateur golfer. From 2023, the field has been restricted to 36 teams, qualified through different criteria.

The equivalent competition for women is the Espirito Santo Trophy.
