Meet the new assistant at Quail Hollow Club
Chelsea Dantoniom a new assistant pro at Quail Hollow Club and a former tour player, gives Golfweek a course tour and some insider perspective.
Chelsea Dantonio knows what it's like to play golf with her living on the line, and she's thrilled to now be working as an assistant professional at Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, North Carolina. She arrived in that role in October of 2024, just in time to watch the club gear up for the 2025 PGA Championship.
A native of Lancaster, New York, near Buffalo and a graduate of Winthrop University in South Carolina, Dantonio was selected as an All-American Scholar three times, and she was on the Big South All-freshmen team in 2015-16. Twice she was the Big South Co-Golfer of the Week. Having turned pro after graduation, her biggest victory came at the 2024 Tennessee Women's Open Championship. Dantonio held status on the Epson Tour and played a handful of events in 2023 and 2024.
Dantonio played 18 with Golfweek's Jason Lusk at Quail Hollow, then sat to discuss her new role at Quail Hollow Club and what's it like to see the club ramp up for hosting the PGA Championship.
