HISTORY - NORTHEAST OHIO AMATEUR CHAMPIONSHIP
Originally known as the Plain Dealer Invitational, the Northeast Ohio Amateur Championship was rescued and rebranded by the Northern Ohio Golf Association in 1965. The NEO Am has had a history of illustrious champions, headed by the late Arnold Palmer, who got his exceptional career started in Northeast Ohio as a young Coast Guard member in 1953. Three-time NEO Am champ Bob Shave Jr. also played the pro tour, and Joe Ungvary Sr., a five-time NEO Am Champion who also won a U.S. Senior Amateur Open. Take a step back and look at the courses and names who have made their mark on amateur golf in Northeast Ohio through this prestigious tournament.
