“We’re committed to building a golf industry supply chain that drives economic growth and creates opportunities for local businesses,” said Sandy Cross, Chief People Officer of the PGA of America. “By welcoming small, local and diverse-owned suppliers, we strengthen the economic impact in our host communities. 

“With the Senior PGA Championship coming to The Concession Golf Club for the next three years, we’re especially excited to engage Florida-based businesses and provide an opportunity for them to showcase their products and services on a global stage through PGA VendorMatch.”

The golf industry is valued at $102 billion, with an estimated $31 billion of that  travel-related. Major championships play a significant role in boosting tourism and leisure spend in their respective regions.
