1949 Chicago District Golf Assoc. Great Lakes Amateur Contestant Badge - Skee Riegel Winner
Representing one of the oldest amateur competitions in the region of the Midwest, the Chicago District Golf Association Amateur Championship has been played since 1914. Local golfer Chick Evans was victorious in the inaugural contest played at Ravisloe Country Club in Homewood. In 1941 the tournament pivoted to become the 'Great Lakes Amateur Championship.' The 1949 contest saw the prior year's Masters Tournament low amateur Skee Riegel end with the lowest score. This badge is in very good condition, with royal blue text on a cream background. 2 1/4" diameter
