TP-Link’s Silver Sponsorship helps drives Hoag Classic’s legacy of giving
TP-Link Systems Inc., a global leader in networking and smart home solutions, is proud to announce its silver level sponsorship of the 2025 Hoag Classic, one of the most prestigious events on the PGA TOUR Champions. This partnership reflects TP-Link’s ongoing commitment to strengthening community bonds in Southern California through its Connect & Care initiative.
The Hoag Classic, renowned for its scenic course and world-class field of professional golfers, has a profound history of giving back. Since its inception, the tournament has raised more than $25 million for charity, benefiting many of Hoag’s programs and services —including the Hoag Family Cancer Institute, the Sue & Bill Gross Women’s Pavilion, the Jeffrey M. Carlton Heart & Vascular Institute, and the Mary & Dick Allen Diabetes Center—as well as more than 50 local charities. Known as one of the most philanthropic tournaments on the PGA TOUR Champions, the Hoag Classic has set the standard for charitable giving in professional golf.
“At TP-Link, we believe in the power of connection, not just through technology, but through meaningful engagement with the communities we serve,” said Jeff Barney, President of TP-Link Systems Inc. “Sponsoring the Hoag Classic aligns perfectly with our core values and allows us to support an event that has a transformative impact in Southern California. We’re honored to be part of a tournament that showcases world-class golf while also making a lasting difference in the lives of so many.”
As a silver level sponsor, TP-Link will be prominently featured in tournament signage, on the Hoag Classic website, and in the tournament pairing guide, a printed and digital piece distributed to all fans on-site. Additionally, TP-Link will serve as the presenting sponsor of the Celebrity Challenge on Friday, March 21, an exciting event that brings together celebrities and professional golfers to raise funds for designated charities.
TP-Link’s sponsorship also includes participation in the Legends Pro-Am, a two-day event that pairs amateur golfers with PGA TOUR Champions professionals, and the exclusive Hoag Classic Hall of Fame Community Breakfast event, featuring golf legend Jack Nicklaus. These experiences provide unforgettable opportunities for TP-Link to connect with the community and celebrate the spirit of giving that defines the Hoag Classic.
“We are thrilled to welcome TP-Link Systems as sponsor of the Hoag Classic,” said Scott Easton, executive director of the Hoag Classic. “Their commitment to the local community and their Connect & Care values resonate deeply with our mission to give back. Together, we can continue to make a meaningful difference and further our tradition of supporting vital healthcare services and charitable organizations throughout our region.”
