SURPRISE, Ariz. – Following the overwhelming success of The Patriot All-America Invitational, organizers have implemented a second tournament to the Patriot lineup named The Thunderbolt, which will feature 72 more of the nation’s top male collegiate players competing in a three-round event from December 29-31, 2022, at Sterling Grove Golf + Country Club in Surprise, Ariz.

“With the depth of talent in college and amateur golf, it is more and more difficult to receive invitations to elite tournaments,” said Dustin Roberts, Chief Operating Officer of the Golf Coaches Association of America (GCAA). “The Thunderbolt allows those individuals that are just missing out on those invitations an opportunity to compete against quality competition and raise their rankings and profiles. We are proud that the top three returning finishes in the 2022 Thunderbolt will receive invitations to the 2023 Patriot All-America Invitational, providing a path to elite tournament play.”
