The 2026 Seminole Pro-Member, held at the exclusive Seminole Golf Club in Juno Beach, Florida, features pairings of professional golfers with club members. Notable participants include Rory McIlroy playing alongside his father, as well as Brooks Koepka and Nelly Korda. The one-day tournament on March 2 highlights the course's prestige and networking opportunities for pros.
The Seminole Pro-Member stands out as one of golf's most exclusive gatherings, taking place annually at the Donald Ross-designed Seminole Golf Club, ranked 32nd among GOLF’s Top 100 Courses in the World. Located in Juno Beach, Florida, near Jupiter Island where many professionals reside, the event minimizes travel demands, especially with the Arnold Palmer Invitational occurring nearby in the state. As a private affair, it prohibits media and public spectators, allowing participants to focus on the game and connections with influential business figures.
This year's field boasts significant talent from both the PGA and LPGA Tours. World No. 2 Rory McIlroy, fresh from victories at the 2025 Masters and Ryder Cup, teams up with his father Gerry McIlroy, a club member, in a rare family pairing. Five-time major winner Brooks Koepka returns to the PGA Tour circuit after his LIV Golf experience and will play with Brett Overman. Other prominent PGA players include Collin Morikawa, Tommy Fleetwood, Rickie Fowler, Luke Donald, and Shane Lowry, the latter coming off a challenging finish at the 2026 Cognizant Classic.
The LPGA contributes with World No. 2 Nelly Korda paired with John Waldron, and her sister Jessica Korda teamed with Mike Troy. Tiger Woods, a frequent attendee, sits out this time to prepare for the upcoming Masters, now just four weeks away.
Tee times begin at 7:15 a.m. from Tees 1 and 10, with groups spread throughout the morning and early afternoon on March 2. The full schedule includes dozens of professionals matched with club members, such as Jhonattan Vegas with John Bannon and Matt Fitzpatrick with Kevin Kenny from Tee 1, and Denny McCarthy with Steve Siegfried from Tee 10. This setup underscores the event's blend of competition and camaraderie among golf's elite.
