Fairlawn, Ohio, May 21, 2025 – For the fourth year in a row, Crystal Clinic Orthopaedic Center, a physician-owned hospital system, is a sponsor of the 2025 PGA’s Kaulig Companies Championship, which will be held June 18-22 at Firestone Country Club in Akron. This officially sanctioned PGA TOUR Champions event draws thousands of spectators each year to see golf legends compete at Firestone’s famed South Course.

For the tournament, Crystal Clinic will once again host its centrally-located “Chat and Chill” spectator area next to the Club House and 10th tee. The area provides comfortable seating where attendees can relax for a moment while spending a day at the course. Physicians, physical and occupational therapists, pain management specialists, and other staff from Crystal Clinic will be on hand to engage with spectators and answer questions. There will also be give-aways and a daily putting contest for a chance to win $100 gift certificates from Firestone Country Club’s pro shop.

Crystal Clinic physicians and staff who are volunteering in the “Chat and Chill” spectator area are led by Danielle Johnson, PT, DPT, MSPT, Director of Outpatient Rehabilitation Services at Crystal Clinic, and Megan James, LPN, Practice Manager of Crystal Clinic QuickCare.

“As a Top 100 hospital in America for orthopaedic care, Crystal Clinic is committed to getting our patients back to the activities they enjoy most. For many, that includes golf. That’s what makes this a perfect opportunity to align our nationally-renowned orthopaedic care, which is also ranked #1 in Ohio, with a major, international golf tournament held right in our own backyard,” said Johnson “We are proud to be part of Northeast Ohio’s premier golf event, while engaging with not only event spectators but also more than 700 volunteers who make this annual event a huge success.”
