From the First Tee to the Final Putt: Golf Tournament 2025 Recap

​On Monday, October 20, the Greater Raleigh Chamber’s Annual Golf Tournament brought members and regional leaders together for a full day of connection, competition, and community support at Prestonwood Country Club.

The day teed off with a special guest on the driving range — Roary, the NC Courage mascot — who helped golfers warm up and set the tone for a fun, relaxed start. Once teams headed out across the Highlands, Meadows, and Fairways courses, the competition got underway, but the real focus of the day was building relationships in a unique, informal setting. Find a few pictures from the event here.
