Nick Jones, Camiko Smith and Daniel Augustus have plenty to look forward to after securing the three spots up for grabs in the Butterfield Bermuda Championship Local Qualifier at Port Royal Golf Course today.

Jones finished as the top qualifier in the 36-hole event at one over par, followed by fellow professionals Smith at two over and Augustus a farther three shots back at five over.

Jones and Smith will tee off in next month’s Butterfield Bermuda Championship and Augustus has an automatic entry in next year’s event after organisers revised the Local Qualifier.

“This year you will note we are providing two exemptions into the 2026 tournament and one into the 2027 tournament. This means that in 2027 we will see four Bermudian golfers compete on the world’s grandest golf stage,” Danielle Carrera, the tournament director, said.
