ORLANDO, FL- The Arnold Palmer Cup announced their selections for Team USA for the 2025 team, and for the first time in program history a CCU golfer has been tabbed for the prestigious privilege. Adam Duncan will be representing Team USA alongside eight DI golfers June 5-7 at the Ryder Cup style tournament at Congaree Golf Club in Ridgeland, South Carolina. 

The Arnold Palmer Cup was co-founded by Arnold Palmer and the Golf Coaches Association of America (GCAA) and began at the Bay Hill Club & Lodge, Orlando, Fla., in 1997. The event is a Ryder Cup-style tournament featuring the top men's and women's university/college golfers matching the United States against a team of International players. The Palmer Cup has been played at some of the world's greatest courses, including The Old Course at St. Andrews, The Royal County Down, Royal Portrush, Baltusrol, The Honors Course, and Cherry Hills. Beginning with the 2018 matches at Evian Resort Golf Club, the Palmer Cup is the only major tournament that features men and women playing side-by-side as partners.

Since its inception, over 245 former Arnold Palmer Cup alumni have gone on to earn cards on the PGA, DP World, or LPGA Tours; 44 have represented Europe or the USA in the Ryder Cup, Presidents Cup, or Solheim Cup and more than 90 have claimed over 415 victories on the PGA, DP World, or LPGA Tours, including 2023 major champions Jon Rahm (Masters Tournament), Lilia Vu (The Chevron Championship & AIG Women's Open), Wyndham Clark (U.S. Open), Allisen Corpuz (U.S. Women's Open), and Brian Harman (The Open), as well as 2023 FedEx Cup champion Viktor Hovland. The United States leads the Palmer Cup series 14-12-1.

Adam has been the best golfer in DII all season, ranked as the #1 player in the nation with a scoring average of 68.5 and four wins throughout the season. It will be a tremendous honor for Duncan to play in this tournament and show that he is not just one of the best golfers in DII, but in the country at any level.
