Club Car Championship at the Landing Gold and Athletic Club announces record-setting 2023 charitable donations.

Tournament officials announced during a special event at The Landings Golf and Athletic Club’s Deer Creek Course, that the sixth annual Club Car Championship at The Landings Golf and Athletic Club, raised more than $400,000 for charitable organizations in greater Savannah and beyond. The 2023 amount equals the largest single-season charitable donation in the history of the official Korn Ferry Tour event and brings the tournament’s five-year total to nearly $1.2 million, marking the first time the tournament has eclipsed one million dollars in charitable giving.

Additionally, the Club Car Championship unveiled the results of its 2023 Sweepstakes Fore Charity program. The grassroots initiative not only raised critical dollars for charity, but also provided one lucky fan with the keys to a new custom Onward, courtesy of Club Car.

“We are thrilled to announce the winner of our third annual Sweepstakes Fore Charity,” said Jeff Tyminski, Vice President of Marketing, Club Car. “Congratulations to Rick Tallon of Savannah, a tournament volunteer and our newest Club Car Onward owner. Sweepstakes Fore Charity has raised more than $70,000 for the tournament’s charity partners since its inception in 2021.”
