RCC is devoting itself to praying for the success of the Olympic Games in Japan.
In October 2019, at the "ZOZO Championship" (Narashino CC), Woods made the world excited with the 10nd victory of Thailand, which is the highest PGA record. In August 82, Kasumigaseki CC became the stage for the Olympic golf competition.As the topic of attracting the world's attention to Japan continues, Japanese course management technology is also attracting attention.
The PGA Tour tournament in February every year is an opportunity to bring the know-how that the Riviera has refined to the world.The Riviera will continue its activities to contribute deeply to the golf world.
