GLENVIEW, Ill. – General admission for the 2025 NV5 Invitational at The Glen Club will be complimentary, courtesy of a new partnership between the Big Ten Network and the Western Golf Association.

The Korn Ferry Tour event, featuring the next generation of golf stars competing for a spot on the PGA TOUR, will be played July 24-27 in Glenview, Illinois. Free daily grounds admission will be offered to spectators on all four days of competition, compliments of the Big Ten Network.

Golf fans planning to attend the NV5 Invitational can register for their free tickets at nv5invitational.com/tickets. Fans can also purchase upgraded tickets for the Trophy Club, an open-air venue overlooking the green on the pivotal par-3 17th hole, or the Corona Cabanas, a premium venue with views of the 18th green and included food and premium bar service.

“We’re thrilled to partner with the Big Ten Network to offer complimentary admission for our fans this year,” said Vince Pellegrino, WGA senior vice president of tournaments. “The Big Ten knows how to give rising stars in every sport an opportunity to shine. Together, we’re making it easier for Chicago-area golf fans to see the next generation of PGA TOUR standouts up close.”

First held in 2019, the NV5 Invitational has established a reputation for thrilling finishes and producing PGA TOUR players. Four past champions are playing full time on the PGA TOUR this season, including 2024 winner Thomas Rosenmueller.

Scottie Scheffler won the inaugural championship and has gone on to win 16 times on the PGA TOUR – including the 2025 PGA Championship and the Masters Tournament in 2022 and 2024 – while rising to No. 1 in the world. Past champions also include 2022 PGA TOUR Rookie of the Year Cameron Young (2021), Harry Hall (2022) and Trace Crowe (2023).

All proceeds from the NV5 Invitational are donated to the Evans Scholars Foundation, supporting the Foundation’s mission of awarding full tuition and housing college scholarships to deserving youth caddies. Last year, 1,190 Evans Scholars were enrolled in 24 leading universities nationwide.

With nearly 3,000 live events across all platforms, the Big Ten Network is the ultimate destination for Big Ten fans and alumni across the country. The network nationally televises more than 600 events and live streams approximately 2,300 more each year.

“As a proud supporter of Big Ten men’s and women’s golf, including the 2025 NCAA Women's Golf Champion Northwestern Wildcats, we understand the importance of showcasing elite competition,” said Michael Peeples, BTN’s vice president of marketing. “We’re thrilled to partner with the NV5 Invitational to create opportunities for our community to engage with the game of golf while helping the Evans Scholars Foundation raise funds to send caddies to college.”
