CHONBURI, Thailand – California men’s golf juniors Aaron Du and Sampson Zheng will compete in the 2022 Asia-Pacific Amateur Championship on Oct. 27-30 at Amata Spring Country Club.
 
Du and Zheng are two of multiple past, current or future NCAA golfers competing in the premier event.
 

The Asia-Pacific Amateur Championship was created in February 2009 as a joint initiative to grow the game by the Asia Pacific Golf Confederation, the Masters Tournament and The R&A. The champion receives an invitation to compete in the Masters Tournament and an exemption into The Open and The Amateur Championship, which are conducted by The R&A. In addition, the runner(s)-up are invited to The Open Qualifying Series, providing an opportunity to qualify for The Open.
 
The 120-player field is annually comprised of the top male amateurs in the Asia-Pacific region representing the Asia Pacific Golf Confederation member organizations.
