About Myrtle Beach Classic 2024
The Myrtle Beach Classic will mark both the first-ever PGA Tour event in Myrtle Beach's history and the Grand Strand's first official major tournament in the previous 24 years. The Dunes Golf & Beach Club, a championship golf course renowned for its beauty along the Atlantic Ocean, will host the event in 2024 from May 6 to May 12.
