PGA TOUR Superstore will be taking over most of the  location that was formerly home to Shoppers at 5100 Nicholson Lane in White Flint Plaza, according to a report from Washington Business Journals. Construction is ongoing at Aldi, which is taking over the other side of the old Shoppers location.

PGA TOUR Superstore is one of the biggest retailers in the golf industry, with more than 40 locations in 16 states. They opened a location in nearby Fairfax last year. All stores are staffed with certified teaching professionals, state-of-the-art swing simulators and hitting bays, an expansive putting green, and an in-house club making and repair facility. Each location also offers an extensive assortment of men’s, women’s and junior’s golf clubs, footwear, accessories, golf balls and multiple lines of apparel for men, women and juniors.

Tomorrow will be the first of the two openings, as the Rockville location will have its Grand Opening at 5568 Randolph Road in the Montrose Shopping Center (in the former Spring Mill Bread Co. location next to MOM’s Organic Market) at 11am.

Located just off Rockville Pike in a 2,000-square-foot, 20-seat space, Shouk Rockville will serve the same menu of plant-based, certified kosher street food available at its other locations, including the award-winning Shouk Burger, featured on the Food Network and The Washington Post. Inspired by the world’s liveliest street markets, Shouk’s food is crafted from fresh vegetables, beans, grains, and lots of spices; no labs, nothing processed or engineered. Shouk Rockville will offer carryout, delivery, and onsite indoor and outdoor dining.
