On digital platforms like YouTube, golf is growing in popularity. As the best entertainers on the fairway build their respective subscriber counts, they are competing against one another to secure a spot with the sport’s top-tier organization. Eight creators are participating in The Q at Myrtle Beach, a qualifying tournament whose winner will earn a berth at the PGA Tour‘s Myrtle Beach Classic.
The Q features a 16-golfer field, and half of its entrants have achieved some measure of prominence by posting golf videos online. The competitors who will vie for a spot in the Classic include George Bryan IV of Bryan Bros Golf, Grant Horvat, Luke Kwon of Good Good, Peter Finch, Micah Morris, Dan Rapaport of Fore Play, Nic “Fat Perez” Stubbe of Bob Does Sports and one of hosts of BustaJack. All of the channels linked in this paragraph sport six-digit subscriber counts on YouTube.
The Q, scheduled for March 4, will not be broadcast live. Instead, the Play Golf Myrtle Beach channel will host a 90-minute recap that will go live upon the conclusion of the qualifying event.
Other competitors will include some local golfers from South Carolina. “Fueled by our love of golf and belief in the magic of a Myrtle Beach golf experience, GTS is thrilled to host ‘The Q at Myrtle Beach’ and welcome the players to The Golf Capital of the World,” said Golf Tourism Solutions Executive Director Ryan Cannon in a statement.
Some of the creators who are participating in The Q have already made their professional aspirations clear. Members of Good Good, for example, joined PGA Tour standout Min Woo Lee at a recent pro-am play session. Finch, who operates one of the most-followed golf channels on social media, recently launched a series to chronicle his “quest” to qualify for the prestigious Open Championship.
The Myrtle Beach Classic will begin on May 6. It’s possible that none of the creators who accepted invitations to The Q will qualify for the Classic, but those who miss the cut can always watch the tournament at the Bob Does Sports golf lounge in New York City.
