The 4th annual U.S. Kids Golf South American Championship will take place in the heart of Brazil, in Rio de Janeiro. Considered one of the most beautiful cities in the world. All 18-hole players will have the opportunity to play the famous Olympic Golf Course. Gil Hanse specifically designed the course to host the 2016 Olympic Games and has tested the best golfers in the world. Our second host course is Itanhangá Golf Club. Our 9-hole players will enjoy the 27-hole complex that has hosted European Tour and LPGA events. It will be a great combination for the families mixing great golf with great landscape. The beginning of the summer will be perfect for enjoying the beautiful beaches of Barra da Tijuca where the courses are located.
