The Malbon Buckets Cup Tour closes its season on golf's most hallowed ground. Played on Pinehurst No. 4 at the legendary Pinehurst Resort — the spiritual home of American golf — this finale pairs elite stroke-play competition with a two-day destination experience in the Sandhills.
A 100-player field competes in a single 18-hole stroke-play round for a $36,000 purse, with season points on the line toward Malbon Buckets Cup Championship qualification. Beyond the ropes, the event is built as a full Pinehurst getaway: accommodations at The Carolina Hotel, an awards reception dinner, welcome gifting from Malbon and its brand partners, and access to the resort's amenities — including the famed Thistle Dhu putting course. It's a fitting, culture-forward capstone to the Buckets Cup season, honoring the game's deepest traditions while celebrating the community that defines Buckets Club.
