<div>The Illinois State Amateur Championship was first played in 1931 at Quincy Country Club. Conducted as match play until 1963, the event is now a 72-hole stroke play competition contested over three days. It is widely considered the premier amateur golf event in the state. Since the Championship was first conducted at stroke play, 46 different golfers have hoisted the Louis L. Emmerson trophy, several of which are current or former members of the PGA Tour. New in 2024, the Illinois State Amateur champion will automatically qualify for this year's U.S. Amateur Championship.</div>
