Tickets available now for U.S. Virgin Islands Champions Club on 16th Green at TPC Boston
NORTON, Mass. (August 15, 2024) – The LPGA Tour’s FM Championship announced Thursday that the U.S. Virgin Islands will be the Official Caribbean Tourism Destination of the inaugural event, which premieres at TPC Boston on Aug. 29-Sept. 1. As part of this multi-year partnership, the U.S. Virgin Islands will bring even more energy and fun to the FM Championship, cultivating a fan experience that highlights the culture and beauty of the islands.
“It is an exciting time for the U.S. Virgin Islands, as we expand our sports partnerships portfolio and collaborate with LPGA,” said Commissioner Joseph Boschulte of the U.S. Virgin Islands Department of Tourism. “As a destination, we aim to partner with organizations that align and reflect our core target demographics while also helping to expand our audiences, and we believe that the LPGA helps us achieve both. In addition, our territory’s longstanding connection to the golf world makes this an easy collaboration as we continue to bridge the gap for tourists to explore and engage in golfing opportunities throughout the USVI territory.”
The U.S. Virgin Islands Champions Club on the 16th green will provide incredible views of the featured par-3 hole, and ticket holders will have access to several amenities like shared food and beverage, including island-themed cocktails. Fans will also feel the island vibes around the course, with special appearances from island dancers and traditional stilt walkers, Mocko Jumbies.
“We are thrilled to partner with the U.S. Virgin Islands as the Official Caribbean Tourism Destination of the FM Championship. While the LPGA Tour showcases the highest level of professional golf on the course, the U.S. Virgin Islands – an area known for its stunning landscapes and rich cultural heritage – will provide an energetic and exciting experience for our fans outside the ropes,” said Patrick Healy, FM Championship Tournament Director. “We are eager to highlight the U.S. Virgin Islands’ exceptional qualities and extend its warm, welcoming spirit to Boston’s golf enthusiasts and the broader community.”
