COURSE: The Dunes Golf and Beach Club, par 71, 7,347 yards. Originally designed by Robert Trent Jones, Sr. in 1948, it was just the second golf course built in Myrtle Beach, now known the world over for its plentiful golf courses. The Dunes was renovated by Rees Jones in 2003, 2013, 2018 and 2023 while awaiting its first visit by the PGA TOUR. The eighth hole will once again play as a par 4 (usually a par 5) while the renovation in 2023 included re-grassing and levelling all championship tees, building new championship tees on Nos. 1, 2, 6, 8 and 14, rebuilding lake edges on Nos. 1, 10 and 18, rebuilding the practice green, and building a new chipping green and practice bunker.

Prior to 2024, The Dunes did have some history with the TOUR. It hosted the PGA TOUR Champions season-ending Charles Schwab Cup Championship from 1994 to 1999 and was the host venue for Final Stage of PGA TOUR Q-School in 1973.

72-HOLE RECORD: 262, Chris Gotterup (2024)

18-HOLE RECORD: 63, Trace Crowe (Round 2, 2024), Mackenzie Hughes (Round 1, 2025)

LAST TIME: Ryan Fox chipped in from about 50 feet away on the first playoff hole to win for the first time on the PGA TOUR. Fox fired a final-round 5-under 66. He topped Mackenzie Hughes and Harry Higgs in the playoff. Hughes had a one-shot lead on the tee of the 72nd hole but hit his drive into the trees and missed a 10-foot par putt. Hughes had a 15-foot birdie look on the first playoff hole, and Higgs had a 25-footer that both missed.

Kevin Yu finished one shot out of the playoff at 14 under while Alex Smalley and Niklas Norgaard – who shot the round-of-the-day Sunday, a 7-under 64 – rounded out the top five.
