NAPLES, Fla., – World Golf Hall-of-Famer Bernhard Langer will attempt to make history when he defends his title at the 2023 Chubb Classic presented by SERVPRO, Naples’ flagship PGA TOUR Champions event, taking place Feb 13-19 at Tiburón Golf Club’s Black Course.
Langer, 65, already the oldest winner in PGA TOUR Champions history, has amassed 44 PGA TOUR Champions victories, one shy of Hale Irwin’s all-time record of 45. At the 2022 Chubb Classic, Langer went wire-to-wire to capture his fourth Chubb Classic win and 43rd victory on PGA TOUR Champions. He opened the tournament by shooting his age with a 64 and closed with a pair of 68’s. He captured his 44th career Champions Tour win at the TimberTech Championship in November.
Joining Langer as early commitments for 2023 Chubb Classic include Hall-of-Famers Retief Goosen, Sandy Lyle and Colin Montgomerie, as well as past champions Scott Parel, Joe Durant, Lee Janzen and Kirk Triplett.
They will be among a 78-player field competing in the 54-hole championship Friday-Sunday, Feb. 17-19, for a share of the $1.8 million purse. Players have until 5 p.m. ET on Feb. 10 to commit to the Chubb Classic. GOLF Channel will televise live all three rounds of play.
