The Tega Cay Sun returned to the Quail Hollow Club yesterday, continuing its on-the-ground coverage of the 2026 Truist Championship. We camped out on the 8th hole and were able to get up close to several of the world’s elite golfers, including Rory McIlroy, Justin Rose, Matt Fitzpatrick, Tommy Fleetwood, and Patrick Cantlay.
Amidst the action of this Signature Event, we even ran into and chatted with Tega Cay’s own Dawn Klena.
