About the Trilby Tour
The Trilby Tour is a multi event amateur golf tournament event created by William Hunt in 2007 where amateurs compete under professional conditions for the chance to win the top Winner Takes All prize. It has since grown at an incredible pace to become the biggest and most stylish amateur golf tournament in the UK

Each round is broadcast as part of a summer series on Sky Sports with the top prize going to the winner of the final event. Players pay a £250 entry fee and are kitted out with William Hunt outfit, trilby hat, limited edition Callaway golf bag, and caddy outfit.

The 2011 tournament was won by 33yr old banker James Voce who created a precedent in the history of the competition by holding both regional (Norfolk Championship) and national Amateur title simultaneously. 

Voce raises the bar in the already fierce amateur golf competition with his double-win, and stood out from the rest with his ice-like composure.

A Professional Event for Amateurs
The appeal of the tournament lies in its unusual competitive format and concludes with a 4-man, 3-hole shootout to decide the winner.

The tournament has had an incredibly enthusiastic response from the Amateur community with players hailing it the closest experience to a Professional event, playing under the pressures of an international televised event. Die-hard fans return year after year gripped by its fierce competitive format:

"I love to see grown men shaking at the first tee – some of them think they have it all under control and then they fold like a deck of cards in front of the cameras. And then they relive that moment when the screening comes out – now that's hard."

"It's fantastic to see the Trilby Tour community growing; we have some guys coming back each year – I call them Trilby Tourians. There's a brilliant camaraderie on and off the course and we've even created our own mini Facebook on the website where players can meet up and get together for a practice round or social."

2010
The 2010 tournament took place across UK, Ireland and Scotland in search of 8 regional champions.

Each Regional Champion and Eleven Runners-Up went through to the Amateur Final, culminating in the Trilby Tour's trademark '3 Hole Play Off' and unique Winner Takes All Finale where Chris Dyson was crowned the 2010 Trilby Tour Champion. 25yr old Tom Reid from Fulwell won the Professional title beating top European Tour pros in his first big tournament win.
