Registration Now Open: Secure Your Spot in the World Am

The wait is over!

Registration for the Play Golf Myrtle Beach World Amateur Championship is now officially open to the public, giving golfers everywhere the opportunity to secure their place in one of the most anticipated events in the game.

Each year, thousands of players return to Myrtle Beach for a week of competition, camaraderie, and unforgettable experiences. With the field limited to 3,000 players, spots traditionally fill quickly as golfers from across the country and around the world plan their annual trip to the Golf Capital of the World.

For golfers who have played before, the World Am is more than just a tournament — it’s a tradition.

And for those considering their first trip, there has never been a better time to join.

Take Advantage of Early Registration Pricing

Golfers who register during the early registration period can secure their spot in the tournament for $649.

The early registration window runs through April 15, offering players the best available price for entry into the world’s largest amateur golf tournament.

Participants who register during this period will also be eligible for special prize drawings and incentives, making early registration even more rewarding.

Why Golfers Return Every Year

The World Am is unique because it combines a true competitive golf environment with the unmatched experience of a Myrtle Beach golf trip.

Players compete in a 72-hole stroke play tournament, playing four different courses during the week while competing in flights based on handicap, age, and gender.

But once the round ends, the experience continues.

Each evening, players gather at the World’s Largest 19th Hole, a massive celebration featuring food, drinks, live entertainment, and golf vendors — creating an atmosphere unlike any other amateur event in the game.

It’s where new friendships are formed, old ones are renewed, and stories from the day’s rounds are shared.

For many golfers, it’s the highlight of the year.

Don’t Miss Your Chance

With only 3,000 spots available, golfers are encouraged to register early to secure their place in this year’s event.

Whether you’re returning to defend your flight title, planning a golf trip with friends, or experiencing the World Am for the first time, the opportunity to compete in this iconic event is now open.

Early registration pricing of $649 is available through April 15, and players who sign up during this period will also be entered into special prize drawings and incentives.
