JACKSON T. STEPHENS CUP

-

Set to debut this October, the event was created by Jackson’s son, Warren Stephens, in honor of his ate father, the former Augusta National Chairman. “Our goal is to create a distinctiv­e and highly-competitiv­e collegiate tournament that is comprised of tomorrow’s PGA TOUR and LPGA stars paying some of the country’s premier golf courses,” said Stephens, the tournament chairman. “Dad truly believed that golf instilled life lessons and built character, especially when started young. Therefore, he would be very humbled and proud that this tournament is named in his honor.”

Co-ed, the Stephens Cup field will feature top NCAA Division I men’s and women’s teams, along with invited payers from HBCUs and the U.S. Military Service Academies. The inaugural event is scheduled to take pace this Oct 17-20 at Stephens’ Alotian Club in Arkansas, with the 2022 and 2023 events scheduled for Seminole Golf Club and Trinity Forest Golf Club, respective­ly.
