 Senior Estimator Takes a Swing at the Tournament

This image shows Team Europe and Team USA holding their respective flags at the Preconstruction Ryder Cup 2026 tournament.

Zumwalt Construction is proud to announce that our senior estimator, Landon Seamons, represented the company as the Team USA captain for this year's Preconstruction Ryder Cup, competing alongside some of the top preconstruction professionals.


Hosted by Gareth McGlynn, the host of The Preconstruction Podcast and CEO of Niche SSP, the event took place on May 5 at TPC Scottsdale. This tournament featured two talented teams battling for the Preconstruction Ryder Cup: Team USA and Team Europe.


Team Europe was led by Paul Wilkins, the vice president and director for preconstruction services at JE Dunn Construction. Both teams delivered a solid performance with each swing shifting the momentum of the tournament. Despite the strong effort from Team USA, Team Europe ultimately defended the title with an impressive finish.


Events such as these are a fantastic reminder of the importance of continuing to build relationships and foster connections across the industry. Zumwalt Construction thanks Gareth McGlynn and all participants for bringing sportsmanship, competitive energy, and collaboration to make this year's tournament a great success.
