Bernhard Langer, the winningest golfer in PGA Tour Champions history, will look to extend his record at the 2025 Chubb Classic, set for Feb. 13-16 at Tiburón Golf Club in Naples.
The 67-year-old Langer, a five-time Chubb Classic champion, missed last year’s tournament after suffering an Achilles injury. After returning to the course, he won the season-ending Charles Schwab Cup Championship, his 47th all-time Champions victory.
Joining Langer as early commitments for this year’s Chubb will be fellow World Golf Hall-of-Famer Ernie Els, defending tournament champion Stephen Ames and 2021 champ Steve Stricker.
Els has 79 professional wins worldwide, including seven Champions victories. He has five major championships on his resume: the 1994 and 1997 U.S. Open, the 2002 and 2012 Open and the 2024 Senior Players. Els opened his 2025 season by winning the Mitsubishi Electric Championship at Hualalai.
Ames won a rain-shortened Chubb Classic in 2024 by three strokes over Rocco Mediate. Last year he earned two additional Champions Tour victories and has 20 professional wins worldwide during his professional career.

Stricker, a former Naples resident, has 41 professional wins worldwide and was the winning U.S. Presidents Cup captain in 2017 and winning U.S Ryder Cup captain in 2021.
These four golfers will be among the 78 players competing in the 54-hole championship for a share of the $1.8 million purse. Players have until 5 p.m. on Friday, Feb. 7 to commit to the Chubb Classic. All three rounds will be televised on the Golf Channel.
