The PGA of Alberta is excited to announce TaylorMade Golf Canada as the newest Presenting Sponsor of the Top 100 Program!

Launched in 2019, the PGA of Alberta Top 100 Program is based on pre-defined measurable criteria designed to recognize members who dedicate their time and proven abilities in advancing the Association’s interests for the benefit of all Golf Professionals.

“TaylorMade Golf Canada is excited about the opportunity to partner with the PGA of Alberta Top 100 Program as a new way to connect and extend support throughout the zone, from new to established Professionals,” said David Bradley, General Manager at TaylorMade Golf Canada. “The Top 100 Program resonated with us as TaylorMade can help encourage engagement and growth within the province, as well as each Professional career”.

As part of this program, the PGA of Alberta acknowledges the Top 100 Professionals which are the top 100 point earners for each year of the program. These members are recognized as a “Top 100 Professional” and receive a custom Top 100 logo. Click here to view the 2021 Top 100 Professionals.

"The Top 100 Program in Alberta is a great program encouraging all PGA of Alberta Professionals engagement in many areas of the Association in an effort to advance the game of golf," said Shaun Piercey, Head Professional at The Ranch G&CC and TaylorMade Staff Player. "Golf Professionals thrive on competition and I believe this program has been very successful in increasing PGA of Alberta membership engagement as well as recognizing the numerous amazing and extremely dedicated Golf Processionals we have in our Zone".

With this new partnership, the PGA of Alberta will now be offering 20 cash prizes at the end of this program year valuing $8,200! The cash prizes will be awarded in October at the Buying Show Awards Banquet to the top 20 point earners for the program.
