OCEAN COUNTY – Jack Nolan, a 17-year-old golfer from Point Pleasant Boro High School, has been selected to compete in the 2025 PURE Insurance Championship at Pebble Beach Golf Links and Spyglass Hill Golf Course from September 19 to 21.
Nolan is one of just 80 teens nationwide chosen for the event, which pairs First Tee participants with PGA TOUR Champions professionals and business leaders. The tournament, hosted by PURE Insurance and the Monterey Peninsula Foundation, will air on Golf Channel.
A member of First Tee – Jersey Shore since age 7, Nolan now works as a junior coach and volunteers at fundraising events for the program. He also caddies at Spring Lake Golf Club and assists with youth golf at Eagle Ridge Golf Club in Lakewood.
“My grandpa introduced me to golf when I was 3,” Nolan said. “First Tee has given me so much in my life, and I’m honored to represent our chapter at Pebble Beach.”
First Tee – Jersey Shore CEO Tara Kelly called Nolan the chapter’s first participant to earn a spot in the prestigious event, adding that he “embodies the true spirit of our First Tee chapter.”
This year’s field will include golf greats such as Ernie Els, Vijay Singh, David Duval and defending champion Paul Broadhurst. Hollywood icon Clint Eastwood returns as tournament chairman.
