The Presidents Cup has always been
about more than golf—it's about leaving
a lasting legacy in the communities it
touches. As the 2026 edition prepares
to make its mark on Chicagoland, that
commitment is already in full swing.
To date, more than $500,000 has been
directed to local organizations, including
First Tee – Greater Chicago and the
DuPage County Crisis Recovery Center,
building momentum for an event that
will resonate far beyond the fairways of
Medinah and reinforcing the tournament's
pledge to strengthen the region it calls
home.
A Big Swing For Impact

Since its inception in 1994, the Presidents
Cup has generated over $56.5 million
for charitable causes worldwide—a
testament to the power of sport to
inspire change. In its first appearance
in Chicago, the event continues that
tradition, uniting golf's global stage with
a local mission: to drive positive impact
that lasts long after the final putt drops.
