Rogers named official partner of Presidents Cup as Charity Classic kicks off in Calgary

Rogers is partnering with this year’s Presidents Cup.

Rogers Communications will be the official telecommunications partner of the popular golf tournament, which is returning to Canada for the first time since 2007.

The 2024 Presidents Cup is being held at the Royal Montreal Golf Club from Sept. 24-29.

“We’re immensely proud to support the Presidents Cup as it returns to Canada for the first time in 17 years, with Montreal as an incredible host city for this prestigious event,” said Terrie Tweddle, Chief Brand and Communications Officer at Rogers.

“This partnership builds on our commitment to growing the game in Canada and building strong communities in Quebec.”

Rogers will offer golf-themed experiences for fans in their fan zone, including a putting green, a golf simulator, and a 360-degree snapshot that sends a video directly to the participant’s smartphone.

There will also be a “Mark the Moment” photo booth where fans can take a picture with the Presidents Cup trophy.

And there will be perks for Rogers customers, such as access to VIP experiences at the tournament.

“We are excited to have Rogers join as the Official Telecommunications Partner of the Presidents Cup,” said executive director Ryan Hart. “Their commitment to growing golf in Canada is undeniable, with sponsorship in tournaments on both the PGA TOUR and PGA TOUR Champions and in players like Team Rogers athlete Mike Weir.”

The announcement was made at the start of the Rogers Charity Classic, a PGA TOUR Champions event in Calgary.

“As a Team Rogers athlete and the 2024 Presidents Cup International Team Captain, this partnership with Rogers is especially exciting to me,” said Weir, who is in the field at the PGA TOUR Champions event in Calgary

The Presidents Cup is a biennial tournament between the United States and an international team.

Rogers Communications is the parent company of CityNews.
