Golf volunteer committed to giving back to the game

Date:

HARTFORD, Wis.The best golfers in the world will once again come to Erin Hills Golf Course in Hartford, Wis.

The U.S. Women’s Open Championship will be played there in May, but the championship can’t run without volunteers.

It’s a familiar place for Chuck Severson, a USGA volunteer who will be in charge of the marshals at the open.

“It’s a championship golf course. And it’s set up specifically for championship golf,” he said. “I’m organizing chaos.”

More importantly, it’s about being part of something bigger than himself.

“I grew up playing golf as a kid,” he said. “And like most volunteers for golf, it’s because you want to give something back to the game.”

The U.S. Women’s Open Championship will be held at Erin Hills form May 26-June 1, 2025.
