Dont Miss The World Champions Cup

DECEMBER 7-10, 2023

THE CONCESSION GOLF CLUB BRADENTON, FLORIDA

The PGA Champions Tour has created a new event called  The World Champions Cup .  Modeled after the Ryder Cup, it is a first of its kind annual three-team, three-day stroke play tournament.  If you love the Ryder Cup you’ll likely love this event featuring many of the best from the Champions Tour.

What’s even better is the combination of European, International and US teams, unlike the Ryder and International Cups.

Each match will be contested over nine holes, with teams earning points for every hole won. After three days, the team with the highest point total will win the World Champions Cup.

The event will be held at The Concession Golf Club in Bradenton, FL from December 7-10, 2023 and is set to air on ESPN and ABC.
