Bidding is open April 20-26
LAWRENCE, Kansas – After a record-breaking event in 2025, the Golf Course Superintendents Association of America’s (GCSAA) Rounds 4 Research auction is back to offer golfers the opportunity to bid on rounds of golf at bucket list courses and local hidden gems.
The 2026 course lineup includes rounds at Bandon Dunes, Nanea Golf Club, Sutton Bay, Sand Valley Resort, French Lick Resort and many more.
Golfers can preview rounds today at Rounds4Research.com. Then, golfers can come back to bid April 20-26.
Rounds 4 Research is presented in partnership with The Toro Co. The program enables the GCSAA Foundation to support local GCSAA Chapters and the national GCSAA to fund critical advocacy, turf grass research, education and community outreach improving the long-term sustainability of the game, ensuring golfer enjoyment now and into the future. Since its inception, the program has raised $5 million.
“We are fortunate to have incredible support from the golf facilities and our GCSAA-affiliated chapters that donate rounds,” said Rhett Evans, chief executive officer of GCSAA. “Their generosity provides golfers with a unique opportunity to help ensure the future of golf simply by purchasing rounds of the game they love.
“It’s this involvement by all parties that has driven the success of Rounds 4 Research and led to breaking our fundraising record each of the last four years.”
