We're bursting with pride to announce that Santiago will be hosting the 2027 Special Olympics World Games! This monumental event marks numerous firsts for the #SpecialOlympics movement: it's the first time in Latin America and the first time ever in the Southern Hemisphere!

What a week in New Orleans with Rory McIlroy. To win on the PGA TOUR again is a dream but to do it with a great friend is even better. Thanks to Zurich and the people in New Orleans for an amazing week and thanks to everyone for their support. 💚☘️
