Texas Joe Black Cup

The Texas Joe Black Cup Matches is annually the most anticipated competitive event in the Northern and Southern Texas Sections. This fiercely contested rivalry between two sister sections is marked by close matches, dramatic shots, uncompromising sportsmanship, and friendships that last lifetimes.

Established in 1981, the Texas Joe Black Cup Matches were created to honor Snyder native Joe Black who was completing his first term as President of the PGA of America. The son of a carpenter, Mr. Black decided early in life that making a living through the game he loved was more appealing than following in his father’s footsteps.

The teams from each Section are represented by their Section President, the top playing PGA Directors of Golf, PGA Head Professionals and PGA General Managers and a Captain’s Pick. The captain of the 45th Joe Black Cup Matches was Larry Bryan, PGA Life Member.
