The 2008 Bobby Chapman Junior Invitational is scheduled
for September 13-14 for the 14th annual playing of this championship. Due to
a complete golf course renovation, the actual competition will take place at
the Carolina Country Club, also in Spartanburg. Carolina Country Club is
host to the BMW Charity Pro-Am for the Nationwide Tour and we truly thank
the membership for allowing the one year hiatus from the Country Club of
Spartanburg. The two clubs have come together to provide one of the best
junior golf championships in the country and we look forward to seeing all
of the players that earned the privilege of competing in this event.

The tournament is held in honor of the late Robert H. Chapman, Jr. Chapman, a long time member of the Country Club of Spartanburg, was the only man to serve as president of both the South Carolina Golf Association & Carolinas Golf Association. He was an accomplished player and served the USGA in several capacities. In his business life, Chapman was a local and national leader in the textile industry. The tournament also benefits the Spartanburg Foundation and the South Carolina Junior Golf Foundation. To date, over $100,000 has gone to scholarship recipients through both organizations thanks to the many kind supporters of the Bobby Chapman.
