The Country Club, in partnership with the USGA, has established the Lee Elder Internship, a one-week immersive experience at the 2022 U.S. Open at The Country Club next June. Applications can be submitted immediately at tcc1882.org/leeelderinternship.
Named for one of golf’s true trailblazers, the innovative program is designed to introduce under-represented youth to the game and its core values, while also showcasing golf’s many career pathways. Over the course of a week, 25 individuals will be exposed to multiple facets of the business of golf and gain firsthand experience and insight from industry leaders. The daily curriculum will cover tournament operations, media, course maintenance and design, sales and marketing, facility operations and management, and other relevant topics.
