Ben Kohles won the 2026 BMW Charity Pro-Am, held June 4-7 at Thornblade Club in Greer and Country Club of Spartanburg.
The event, which features both a celebrity tournament and a Korn Ferry Tour event, is held annually and benefits Upstate nonprofits. Since 2001, the event has contributed more than $17 million to local charities.
Kohles shot an even-par final round to finish 15-under, good for a four-stroke victory over Logan McAllister. It was his fifth Korn Ferry Tour win and his first this year. The Korn Ferry Tour is the developmental circuit for the PGA Tour.
Greenville native William Jennings, playing on a sponsor’s exemption, finished 12th and earned a spot in the next Korn Ferry Tour event – the OccuNet Classic June 11-14 in Amarillo, Texas. Jennings, who plays for Alabama, also finished second in the NCAA Division I Men’s National Championship on June 1.
The BMW Charity Pro-Am is presented by TD Synnex. This year’s celebrity lineup included movie star Bill Murray, U.S. and Furman soccer legend Clint Dempsey, and many more. The event will again be a stop on the Korn Ferry Tour in 2027.
