A New Era in Golf Sponsorship

There’s an exciting new name at the PGA Championship! Auto and General is thrilled to announce its partnership as the Proud Sponsor of the SA PGA Championship, aligning itself with one of South Africa’s most prestigious golf tournaments.

Scheduled to take place from 5 - 8 November 2026 at The Country Club Johannesburg, Woodmead, the PGA Championship boasts a rich history spanning over a century. This tournament has seen some of the greatest names in South African golf, including legends like Bobby Locke, Gary Player, Ernie Els, and Louis Oosthuizen, lift the coveted trophy.

While the players and generations may change, one thing remains constant: commitment. The early mornings, the long days, and the countless practice shots that go unseen all contribute to the preparation needed to perform at the highest level. This ethos resonates deeply with Auto and General's belief in being there when it truly matters.
