News Summary

The prestigious Commander-in-Chief’s Cup, featuring college golf talent from the Army, Navy, and Air Force, relocates to Scottsdale National Golf Club after Hurricane Milton disrupts its original site. From October 13-15, expect exciting competitions on a uniquely designed course that highlights camaraderie and support for military members, underlining the golf community’s dedication to its athletes and the armed forces.

Exciting Golf Showdown Moves to Scottsdale National!

Get ready for a thrilling weekend as Scottsdale National Golf Club gears up to host this year’s Commander-in-Chief’s Cup from October 13-15! Originally set for the stunning Seminole Golf Club in Florida, this prestigious tournament had to find a new home after Hurricane Milton blew into town. Luckily, PXG’s founder, a proud U.S. Marine Corps veteran, stepped in to save the day by offering his stunning golf club as the new venue!

What’s the Commander-in-Chief’s Cup All About?

The Commander-in-Chief’s Cup brings together some of the brightest collegiate golf players from the Army, Navy, and Air Force for a friendly yet competitive battle on the greens. These talented student-athletes are not just players; they epitomize the values of dedication to both golf and the military. In its first year last season, it was an absolute nail-biter as the U.S. Military Academy emerged victorious over the Navy in a playoff match held at The Robert Trent Jones Golf Club in Virginia.

Speedy Venue Change Shows Team Spirit

When the original location needed to be changed swiftly, the golf community sprang into action. It took just 36 hours for organizers to rally and confirm Scottsdale National as the new spot for the tournament. This quick decision showcases an impressive level of camaraderie and determination among everyone involved – especially given the circumstances!

Playing on a Unique Course

Competitors will hit the course on “The Other Course”, which boasts an ingenious layout of six par 3s, six par 4s, and six par 5s. Golf enthusiasts can anticipate a diverse and exciting game full of strategy, skill, and of course, tons of fun!

Supporting The Heroes on the Course

One of the standout features of PXG is its dedication to supporting military members. They’ve been active in providing custom-fitted clubs and resources through various programs. Notably, the PXG for Heroes program offers special pricing and experiences to active members of the U.S. Armed Forces, law enforcement, and first responders – demonstrating a commitment to those who serve our country.

A True Testament of Collaboration

The gathering at Scottsdale National emphasizes how the golfing industry can unite in times of need. It’s an inspiring example of how competitors can put aside their differences and come together for a greater purpose. Bob Parsons showed incredible respect for the student-athletes and felt compelled to step up and help when the tournament found itself without a venue.

Anticipation Builds for an Unforgettable Weekend

As the tournament weekend nears, spirits are high and excitement is in the air. With a refreshing new location and a resolve that has brought everyone together, the Commander-in-Chief’s Cup promises to be a fantastic display of talent, hard work, and dedication. Over the next few days, golf fans and players alike will enjoy a wonderful mix of competition, camaraderie, and shared appreciation for the armed forces.

So get ready to cheer on our brave student-athletes as they swing their clubs and aim for victory at the Commander-in-Chief’s Cup. It’s going to be an incredible show of golf that you won’t want to miss!
