“To provide the most welcoming and competitive environment, our tournament team goes above and beyond to flight the competition based on age, gender and skill,” said Ryan Hart, Tournament Director, Golf Tourism Solutions. “The entire Myrtle Beach community is engaged and eager to host players from around the world for a magical week of golf and fun.”

Participants choose among Net, Gross and Just for Fun Divisions. Early registration (by May 22) is $649 per player and includes four rounds of golf at a different course each day, nightly access and a guest pass to the World’s Largest 19th Hole, a commemorative gift bag, and the opportunity to earn a spot in the Championship Playoff.

All flight winners will compete in the fifth round, the Championship Playoff, Friday, August 29, to determine the 2025 World Champion.
