The Venue

Tucked at the base of the Santa Monica Mountains above Lake Sherwood, Sherwood Country Club is one of the most storied private clubs in America. Its championship course — designed by Jack Nicklaus and opened in 1989 — winds through oak groves, rock outcroppings, and mountain views that have made it a favorite of tour pros and Hollywood alike.

For over a decade, this was Tiger's house: Sherwood hosted Tiger Woods' World Challenge from 2000 to 2013, along with Greg Norman's Shark Shootout, the famous prime-time "Showdown at Sherwood," and the PGA Tour's 2020 Zozo Championship. On August 31, it hosts the Jam.

The Cause

The Chad Smith Foundation

The Chad Smith Foundation is dedicated to bridging the gap in music access and opportunity for underserved youth — built on the belief that every person deserves the chance to experience the transformative power of music.

Chad's own story is the blueprint: exposed to music early and developed through school programs before becoming the Red Hot Chili Peppers' drummer and one of the most celebrated drummers of all time. Co-founded by Chad and Executive Director Lewis Smith, the Foundation works toward a world where music education and resources are accessible to every young musician, regardless of economic circumstance.

Education

Music education programs for youth who lack access.

Equipment

Instruments and gear in the hands of young musicians.

Scholarships

Support for young talent to develop and pursue music.

Every Golf Jam '26 package purchased goes directly toward this mission. Questions about the event, sponsorships, or donating live auction items?
