We’ll Give Away 100 Oakley Backpacks on Tuesday at the 19th Hole!

As the world’s largest golf tournament, we have almost 400 players that finish the week in the top 5 of their flights. They will each receive a trophy and gift card for their great week on the course, and one will be crowned the 2017 “World Amateur Champion” golfer. In addition, we’ll dish out over 600 on-course contest prizes for feats such as closest to the pin, longest drive and daily low net. However, you don’t have to have your “A” game throughout the week to leave Myrtle Beach with a great prize.

In addition to over 70 random drawing winners back in April and the more than $20,000 worth of prizes we will give away on Thursday night at the 19th Hole, we will make 100 more winners on Tuesday night as well. Two flights will be randomly selected and each player in those flights will receive a custom World Am logoed Oakley backpack. These stylish, practical backpacks are great for travel or work.

Stay tuned to learn more about the large item random drawing prizes to be given away, along with more details about the World’s Largest 19th Hole in the coming weeks.
