* Indicates Championships that use the match play format. Players earn points based off the last round of match play they reach (Ex. If a player loses in the quarter-finals, they would earn the points associated with quarter-finalists).

The FSGA Championship Committee will select players for Player-of-the-Year Awards (Junior, Amateur and Senior) and players for team competitions. The Committee will consider all factors including standings on points lists (Championship Points List, Two Year Points List and Florida Junior Tour Points List) and player’s success in FSGA, USGA and other select Championships of similar status. The Amateur Player of the Year Award may be a player of any age.
