Photo Gallery: Registration is Underway!

Chris Schultz has always been competitive. As a kid, it was baseball. Golf was there too — nine holes with his dad down the street from their house, starting when he was just three or four years old. In Illinois, golf filled the fall and baseball owned the spring. For a while, he was able to balance both.

He talks about the restaurants. The places to stay. The nightly entertainment. The atmosphere.
The friendships. Every year he collected phone numbers from new friends and reconnected with
them the following August.

The countdown is on. Registration is about to open for the Play Golf Myrtle Beach World Amateur Championship, the world’s largest amateur golf tournament, and one of the most anticipated weeks in amateur golf.
