WHAT
The Captains Challenge, an officially sanctioned Ryder Cup event, will take place on Wednesday, September 26, at Rich Harvest Farms in Sugar Grove, Ill.
This memorable event provides everyday golfers with an opportunity to be a member of a 12-person team led by a past U.S. Ryder Cup Captain. A total of 96 participants will be divided into eight 12-person teams, and will play an 18-hole round, including all three formats used at the Ryder Cup.
