We will come together at the Firestone Country Club for a day where a round of golf can help fight cancer and find cures. It is a day to cultivate lasting business relationships with clients, prospects and area business leaders. About South Course at Firestone Country Club – Renowned for its extensive PGA tournament history, the par 70, 7,400-yard South Course at Firestone includes some of the toughest, most famous and most enjoyable holes in golf. A championship course from its conception, the South Course has hosted more than 70 professional tournaments, including 18 years of the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational, 36 years of the World Series of Golf, and three PGA Championships. It is the current home of the Kaulig Companies Championship. The South Course was designed in 1929 by Bert Way, debuting as the original course at Firestone Country Club. In preparation for the 1960 PGA Championship, Robert Trent Jones Sr. completed extensive redesigns, adding over 50 bunkers, two ponds, and increasing the distance significantly while knocking the South Course down to a par 70. It’s no wonder the South Course has been ranked among the top 100 courses in the U.S.
