The Galleri Classic is also looking for volunteers for the tournament. Those 18 and older who are interested in a behind-the-scenes experience of how a professional golf tournament operates can join what should be more than 500 volunteers for the week. Information is available at www.TheGalleriClassic.com/volunteers.

“The spectator turnout, volunteer response and collective fever for the inaugural Galleri Classic exceeded our expectations and reassured us that there is a healthy culture for PGA TOUR Champions golf in the desert, and that our community was eager for a return to professional golf at Mission Hills Country Club,” said Michelle DeLancy, tournament director for the Galleri Classic.

David Toms led wire-to-wire in becoming The Galleri Classic’s first champion in March, making birdies on six of his last 10 holes on the way to a final-round 7-under 65 and a three-day total of 16-under 200 and a four-stroke victory while claiming a $330,000 winner’s prize.

The 2023 Galleri Classic marked the return of PGA Tour Champions golf to the Coachella Valley for the first time in 30 years, and Toms is expected to lead one of the strongest fields in senior golf in defending his title.
