Cognizant Classic beer, wine prices leave pro golfer feeling the pinch: Spectating ‘ain’t


It “ain’t cheap” to enjoy an alcoholic beverage this week at the Cognizant Classic of the Palm Beaches at PGA National in Palm Beach Gardens.

Just ask 13-time PGA Tour winner Mark Calcavecchia.

Calcavecchia, who lives in Jupiter and is a longtime Palm Beach County resident, took to X on Thursday to lament the exorbitant prices for a glass of beer or wine in the viewing gallery.

“This spectating s*** ain’t cheap,” Calcavecchia tweeted with an image of a drink menu at PGA National.

Listed prices included $13 for a Corona Light, Premier, Extra and Modelo Especial. Chardonnay and pinot noir by the glass as well as sparkling wine cost $12.45 according to Calcavecchia’s picture.

Calcavecchia, who won the Honda Classic in Palm Beach Gardens in 1987, currently competes on the PGA Tour Champions.

He underwent back surgery in January 2021 and worked to return to competitive form later that year.

Calcavecchia missed the cut or withdrew from his five most recent appearances at senior major championship tournaments.
