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.[2]

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.[3] "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.[4] He finished the tournament T46 with a final score of −6.
