The partnership marks an exciting new chapter for one of Western North Carolina’s most historic golf destinations.
As Springdale Ambassador and Strategic Consultant, Rymer will help share the resort’s rich history, showcase its championship golf experience, participate in member and guest events, and represent Springdale through special appearances and media initiatives.

Known throughout the golf world for his authentic personality, infectious enthusiasm, and lifelong passion for the game, Rymer has built a distinguished career both inside and outside the ropes. A former U.S. Junior Amateur Champion and two-time All-American at Georgia Tech, Rymer competed on the PGA Tour before becoming one of golf’s most recognizable voices through more than two decades of broadcasting work with ESPN and Golf Channel. He earned a reputation for making the game more approachable, entertaining, and enjoyable for golfers of every skill level.
“Charlie embodies everything that makes Springdale special,” said Jeremy Boone, CGCS, MG, the resort’s General Manager. “His appreciation for the traditions of golf, his love for the people who play the game, and his ability to connect with audiences make him an outstanding ambassador for our resort. We are thrilled to welcome him to the Springdale family.”
Rymer echoed that excitement.

Members and guests will begin seeing Rymer at select tournaments, member events, and special programs throughout the year, where he will bring his trademark humor, storytelling, and passion for golf to the Springdale experience.
The first official appearance in his new role took place during Springdale’s annual Member/Guest Tournament, where participants had the opportunity to interact with Rymer throughout the event, including a special appearance on Hole No. 8 on Friday, where he commentated on the action and hit shots.
With a rich history, exceptional mountain golf, and a renewed vision for the future, Springdale Resort continues to invest in experiences that celebrate the game while creating lasting memories for members and guests alike.
