The Creator Classic
For the first time, the most popular golf creators from around the globe will face off in "The Creator Classic," a nine-hole competition at East Lake Golf Club prior to the TOUR Championship, the culmination of the PGA TOUR’s FedExCup Playoffs. Sponsored by Blackstone, the tournament will be broadcast on the PGA TOUR YouTube channel and several other platforms on Wednesday, Aug. 28, at 4 p.m. ET at East Lake, before play begins at the TOUR’s season-ending event.
On the eve of the TOUR Championship, which sees the top 30 PGA TOUR professionals who have made it through the FedExCup Playoffs compete for a shot at becoming FedExCup champion, 16 of the most successful and skilled golf creators will take on the newly restored East Lake Golf Club – facing the same conditions as the pros – each competing for the inaugural Creator Classic title.
The realm of YouTube golf has not only emerged as a formidable player in sports entertainment but has also carved out its own unique genre. The Creator Classic is bridging the gap between conventional golf tournaments and the world of social media, providing an engaging experience for a diverse audience.
