Peggy Kirk Bell Girls Tour - Linville Cup

The Linville Cup at Mid Pines Inn & Golf Club is a unique, invitation-only team event on the Peggy Kirk Bell Girls Golf Tour calendar. Blending competition with leadership development, the Linville Cup brings together top players from across PKBGT regions for a weekend of team match play, mentorship, and personal growth.

Hosted at one of the Sandhills’ most storied venues, the event features regional teams competing in a Ryder Cup-style format alongside coaches who serve as both mentors and captains. Off the course, players take part in workshops and the Linville Leadership Experience, making the Linville Cup one of the tour’s most distinctive and community-driven traditions.

The Peggy Kirk Bell Girls Golf Tour (PKBGT), an initiative of the non-profit Girls Golf of America, is the nation’s only LPGA Foundation Approved girls-only tour. Dedicated to growing participation and opportunity in junior girls golf, the PKBGT provides a structured Progression Pathway that allows players to develop at their own pace through yardage-based divisions rather than age-based groupings. The tour hosts more than 110 events annually across national and regional circuits, offering affordable, high-quality competition for girls ages 9–19. With over 1,400 alumnae advancing to collegiate programs and many competing on the LPGA and Epson Tours, the PKBGT continues to set the standard for player development, exposure, and community in junior girls golf.
