Cognizant has today announced a new partnership with the Japan Golf Association, taking on a special sponsorship of three National Open Golf Tournaments: the Japan Open, the Japan Women’s Open and the Japan Senior Open.

The Japan Open Golf Championship is among the most prestigious domestic tournaments in Japan, attended by the best international professionals and top amateurs across all titles. Founded in 1927, it is also one of Japan’s longest-standing professional tournaments. While sponsoring the elite Open Championship, Cognizant is proud to showcase golf talent across the board and will also sponsor the Women’s and Seniors Open Golf Championships for 2022.
