Kohler, Wisconsin -- Kohler, Wisconsin will host the No Tees Tour on October 1, 2026, staging a head-to-head short-game competition at The Baths of Blackwolf Run beginning at 5:00 p.m. CT.
Kohler becomes one of four host destinations for the emerging golf format
The resort will provide luxury accommodations for the competing field while its facilities at The Baths of Blackwolf Run host the tour's signature short-game showdowns. Thirty-two professional golfers, athletes, entertainers and digital creators will compete in the event, which is open to resort guests.
No Tees Tour applies a streetball-inspired format to competitive golf
Founded by Will Lowery, also head of Crosshand Group, the tour centers on chipping and putting battles rather than full-length play, a structure organizers compare to a golf version of HORSE. Lowery said the Blackwolf Run venue offers a setting suited to the tour's head-to-head format, which emphasizes shot-making and creativity over distance.
Kohler positions the event within a broader push to grow golf participation
Mike O'Reilly, General Manager of Kohler Golf, said the partnership reflects the company's effort to expand access to the sport across skill levels as its golf business continues to grow. The Baths of Blackwolf Run is a 10-hole, par-three course built as part of Herb Kohler's championship golf development at the resort, which also includes Whistling Straits, site of three PGA Championships and the 2021 Ryder Cup.
