CJ Cup coming to Congaree Golf Club

CJ Cup in South Carolina


This week (on 6/29/2022), the PGA TOUR announced, that Congaree Golf Club will see another PGA TOUR tournament. After the Palmetto Championship was played at Congaree in June 2021, the CJ Cup will come to Congaree in October 2022. In 2020 and 2021, the CJ Cup, usually held in South Korea, was contested (due to the COVID-19 pandemic) in Las Vegas, NV. 

This year, 2022, the CJ Cup will happen in South Carolina.    Congaree Golf Club is just North of Ridgeland, SC - approximately 45 minutes West of Hilton Head, SC. The drive from Savannah, GA (the main airport used for this event) is also close to 45 minutes.
Tournament week will be 10/17/2022 - 10/23/2022. 

Volunteer info and other CJ Cup in South Carolina related news will be available soon.   Once volunteer registration opens, we'll post it here on our blog page.

The 2022/2023 PGA TOUR schedule has not been announced. Upon its release, we will post it - with direct links to available volunteer registration pages for the respective tournament - here:

Congaree Golf Club

A few months after the Palmetto Championship, I (Andreas) had a chance to play a round at Congaree. It's a tough course. It's long. However, the course is so nice. It was a great experience. Below a couple of pictures from that fantastic day.

    The Palmetto Championship at Congaree is coming to South Carolina.

    As we learned just a couple of days ago, the 2021 RBC Canadian Open, not held due to COVID-19 logistical challenges, will be replaced with the Palmetto Championship at Congaree Golf Club in Ridgeland, SC. See details in the official announcement:
    https://www.pgatour.com/tournaments/palmetto-championship-at-congaree/news/2021/04/02/palmetto-championship-at-congaree-announced.html

    This PGA TOUR event will be played June 7-13, 2021, the weekend before the US Open. Congaree Golf Club is located approx. 45 minutes North of Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport, just outside of Ridgeland, SC.

    Golf volunteers will be needed for this event, but no official volunteer website for the tournament is available yet. Stay tuned - we will post here, once information is public and posted, so that interested volunteers can register.

    I (Andreas) will be running Player Transportation and will certainly need help.  More details pending a site visit and multiple calls with PGA TOUR staff and others.


    Looking forward to hearing from interested volunteers for the 2021 Palmetto Championship at Congaree.
