World Amateur: 60-plus top Myrtle Beach courses set to host
I've played in the World Amateur Handicap
Championship for the past two years and
remain excited to compete again this year,
Aug. 25-29.
What I've been most impressed with during
my
World Amateur experiences, is the event's
ability to slot each flight at a top-notch course
throughout the four key days of the
tournament.

Last year, for instance, I played TPC Myrtle
Beach and Carolina National, a top-notch Fred
Couples signature just over the border in
North
Carolina.
With the event's recent news that
another stellar golf
course lineup awaits the roughly 3,000
competitors this year, it's evident that
tournament golf at fantastic courses is in my
future yet again!
“The diversity of our golf course offerings
here
in Myrtle Beach are a primary reason for the
event’s success,” Jeff Monday, the World Am’s
tournament director, said. “We are fortunate
to have some of the best golf courses not only
in Myrtle Beach but all of America, and it
helps
us deliver a great golf experience for all
3,000+
players.”
With the championship round slated at the Dye
Club, more than 60 standout courses along
Myrtle Beach's Grand Strand are scheduled to
host golfers during the event this year.
