Chicago for the Presidents Cup: Golf by Day, an Extraordinary Evening After
The world's best players arrive at Medinah this September — and with them, a week of corporate hospitality, late dinners and the kind of Chicago evenings that deserve the right company.
Why This Week Matters
From September 24 to 27, Medinah Country Club hosts the 2026 Presidents Cup — the United States against the International team, twelve players a side, four days of match play on one of the most storied courses in the country. Practice rounds and hospitality begin earlier in the week, which means Chicago fills with a very particular crowd: sponsors and their guests, executives entertaining clients, founders who fly in for the golf and stay for the city.
It is, quietly, one of the best weeks of the year to be in Chicago with an evening to spare.
Make a Week of It
Stay in the Gold Coast or along the river — The Peninsula, the Langham, the Waldorf Astoria — where the after-golf hours feel as considered as the morning tee time. Dinner is the city's strong suit: a steak at Bavette's or Gibsons for tradition, Alinea or Oriole when the evening calls for theatre, RPM Italian or Monteverde when it calls for ease.
Then the hours the golf doesn't fill. Cocktails at the Violet Hour or a corner at the Green Mill. A late nightcap looking down the river from a hotel bar. Medinah is a forty-minute drive west; the city is where the evening actually happens.
Better With Extraordinary Company
A hospitality week is full of rooms you'd rather not walk into alone: the sponsor dinner, the client cocktail hour, the long table at a steakhouse where every seat is a conversation. The right companion changes the temperature of all of it — composed, well-travelled, genuinely good company, and entirely discreet.
That is what Divine Dating Co. arranges: an introduction to an Angel who suits the occasion, whether that is one dinner, one evening, or the full week.
Who Is in Chicago
Chicago is a touring city for us rather than a home base, so availability moves with the calendar. The Angels shown here reflect who is in the city now, who has upcoming dates, and who can fly to you by advance arrangement. If your week is already set, tell the concierge your dates and we will confirm who is right for them.
