The Myrtle Beach Classic is a golf tournament on the PGA Tour. It is played at the Dunes Golf and Beach Club in the Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. It was first played in 2024.
History
On May 10, 2023, the PGA Tour announced a four-year agreement with the Dunes Golf and Beach Club to debut the Myrtle Beach Classic in 2024.
On February 16, 2024, the PGA Tour announced that a select few golf YouTubers would be invited to play for an unrestricted sponsor exemption into the Myrtle Beach Classic. "The Q at Myrtle Beach" was held on March 4, 2024, at TPC Myrtle Beach and pitted 16 players, including eight YouTubers, against each other for a single spot. Matt Atkins won and was therefore invited to play in the Myrtle Beach Classic.
Thorbjørn Olesen broke the course record during the fourth round of the 2024 tournament with a score of 61 (−10).
