π₯ An unforgettable night at The Peninsula Chicago.
The 2026 Green Coat Gala Presented by Peter Millar celebrated the life-changing power of caddying with Ohio Evans Scholar Emmy Holt and a fireside chat featuring NBC Sports' Steve Sands and golf legend Bernhard Langer.

ALT A gala program card is displayed on a table set for dining. The card reads "The 15th Annual Green Coat Gala presented by Peter Millar" and mentions "Evans Scholars Foundation" and "The Peninsula Chicago, Nov. 6, 2026." A photo on the card shows two individuals in golf attire on a course, each carrying a golf bag bearing the WGA logo.

ALT A large group of people is gathered in a formal banquet hall for the "Green Coat Gala" by Peter Millar. The room is filled with round tables where attendees are seated, dressed in formal attire, and engaged in conversation. The background features a wooden wall and a stage with a large sign displaying the event's name.
