2020 Bracket Challenge: Final Four

Caledonia Golf & Fish Club

The World Am Bracket Challenge rolls on to the much anticipated “FINAL FOUR”.

We began the road to the Championship with 58 golf courses, all with their own individual beauties, challenges, and fun. Through five rounds of voting from the people, we are left with just four courses to battle for the title.

The “Final Four” of the World Am Bracket Challenge is set, and we wanted to preview both of the incredible matchups in the semifinal round of voting.

TPC Myrtle Beach and Tidewater Golf Club

From the very beginning we knew we would see some amazing matchups along this Bracket Challenge journey, and boy do we have one brewing here. Hoisting numerous impressive individual accolades, awards, and honors, Tidewater and TPC Myrtle Beach are two of South Carolina’s top gems already.

Positioned on one of the most breathtaking properties in the Carolinas, Tidewater presents its guests with a one-of-a-kind experience every round. With famous views of the marshes and Cherry Grove just across the water, Tidewater is unofficially touted as the “Pebble Beach of the East”. It isn’t just a pretty view at this property, as the golf course is a world-class layout that demands golf shots while also being fair and fun for all skill levels. After finishing a round at Tidewater golfers are rewarded with a truly complete golf experience that brings you back again and again.

On the other side of the tape is one of the best all-around golf facilities in the Southeast, TPC Myrtle Beach. Featuring an absolutely incredible tournament layout, TPC takes the golfer for a unique journey that is tough to find anywhere else in the area. This Tom Fazio design utilizes every type of golf challenge possible. From short but dangerous par 3’s to dauntingly long but forgiving par 4’s, TPC will ask a golfer to use every club in their bag by the end of the round. TPC Myrtle Beach isn’t just a challenging round of golf though, with top-level customer service, world class conditions and amenities, and a “PGA Tour-quality experience” where every guest is given the same red-carpet VIP treatment that the top players are given on the Tour. 

The picturesque marshlands of Tidewater Golf Club go up against a true PGA Tour experience at TPC Myrtle Beach in this semifinal bout. Who will emerge on top?

Golf Club

There is no greater rivalry that exists in this world than the sibling variety. Caledonia Golf & Fish Club and True Blue Golf Club, sister courses positioned on the south end of Myrtle Beach, will go head-to-head in our other “Final Four” battle that is sure to have some fireworks.

Both properties showcase the amazing talents of the world-renowned golf course architect, Mike Stranz. The duality across the two properties is simply amazing. Two completely different golf courses with their own personalities and highlights, but clearly born from the same genius. After playing both courses every golfer is sure to have their own personal favorite.

True Blue Golf Club is a bomber’s paradise. With fairways you can land a passenger jet on, and some of the largest green complexes you will ever find, True Blue’s expansive layout lures the golfer into a grip and rip mentality. Beware of the water though, a round at True Blue may cost you a few golf balls, but you will surely have a whole lot of fun doing it. Pairing this special layout with top-notch manicured conditions, a loop around True Blue Golf Club is sure to make every golfer smile.

Just across the street from True Blue sits one of the most beautiful properties not only in Myrtle Beach, but the golfing world. Caledonia Golf & Fish Club instantly grabs the heart of its lucky visitors, greeting all with a jaw-dropping drive beneath ancient live Oak trees. The property is second to none. Nestled along the banks of the Waccamaw River, Caledonia is more than just 18 holes of challenging and inspiring golf, it is a golfer’s paradise. Showcasing incredible scenery and wildlife around every corner, Caledonia’s beauty is a golf experience truly unlike any other in the area.

Like two siblings duking it out for the remote control, sister courses True Blue and Caledonia go head to head for a spot in the World Am Bracket Challenge Championship.  Which one is your favorite?
