The USDGA’s mission is to provide people with physical, sensory and intellectual disabilities an opportunity to showcase their ability in a golf championship at a high level.
"The PGA of America is thrilled to support the 2025 USDGA Championship and continue our alliance with the United States Disabled Golf Association,” said PGA of America President Don Rea Jr., PGA Master Professional and Owner/Operator of Augusta Ranch Golf Club (Arizona). “This collaboration exemplifies our mutual dedication to making golf a welcoming and accessible sport for everyone, both recreationally and competitively. I am incredibly excited to see the remarkable talent and inspiring stories that will emerge from the Championship this year at PGA Golf Club.”
“Together with our sponsors, we are excited to welcome adaptive golfers from around the globe,” said USDGA Founder Jason Faircloth. “We hope they cherish the experiences this championship has offered over the years.”
