Thursday Night at the World’s Largest 19th Hole

The final night of the World’s Largest 19th Hole is always a bittersweet affair. It signals the end of an event we all look forward to, but there is still three more hours of fun to be had.

Here is what’s on the agenda tonight at the convention center:

— Golf Channel’s Damon Hack and Chantel McCabe will lead the fun from the 19th Hole main stage.

— Paige Spiranac will be on hand to meet tournament players and provide golf tips.

— Night Years, a premier party band, will play the final night at World Am Live.

— Headlining the food menu are Sam Snead’s (angus meatloaf), Masala (chicken curry), Fire & Smoke (porcini and herb encrusted pork), Angelo’s (cavatappi pasta with meatballs), Sticky Fingers (BBQ pulled chicken), Greg Norman’s Australian Grille (filet mignon), Martin’s (pork tenderloin) and, as always, Domino’s and Friendly’s.

— We will give away a host of random drawing prizes, highlighted by a trip to the Players Championship and a Myrtle Beach Golf Trip of a Lifetime.

We hope to see you at the convention center.
