What does "265" Stand for? The name “265,” which is also visible in the logo, derived from David Toms’ winning score at the 2001 PGA Championship. His score of 265 still stands as the lowest aggregate total in major golf championship history! 265 was also Toms’ winning score for his first PGA TOUR win (1997 John Deere Classic) and his most recent TOUR win (2011 Crowne Plaza Invitational at Colonial). The David Toms Academy is owned and operated by the David Toms Foundation, a 501(c)3 founded in 2003, which has awarded over $3.6 million dollars to local children’s charities.

Sam was already an elite junior golfer when 265 opened in 2013, but it was great to have him out here every day working on his game, setting an example for others and helping younger players along the way. He made his announcement to attend LSU at 265 and he has inspired so many young golfers in our area. We know his win at the Valspar will be the first of many. Congratulations!

Pretty cool to be watching both Sam Burns and David Toms hold Sunday leads. Hope they both bring home the hardware.
