Myrtle Beach Golf News & Updates

Struggling with your game? Your problem could be as simple as an improper grip, and Classic Swing Golf School’s Ted Frick will show you how to make sure the first step you take in building a good swing is the right one.

Myrtle Beach is golf’s most popular destination, and the quality and value of the area’s courses are at the top of the reasons why. Here are five courses that will have you dreaming of your next golf trip.

Parkland is the youngest of the three courses at Legends Resort and it’s also the most traditional, American-style design, hence the name. With its tree-lined fairways and deep bunkers, Parkland offers a substantial challenge, and we asked head pro Matt Biddington to name the course’s three best holes. Biddington’s answers – a stern par 3, a short par 4 and a long par 5 – are a testament to the diversity of the layout’s offerings.  

The tee shot on a daunting par 3 can be one of golf’s most sweat-inducing shots, and there are more than a few one-shotters that weaken the knees of players on the north end of Myrtle Beach’s Grand Strand.

Maryland resident Dan Snyder estimates he has visited Myrtle Beach 100 times over the last 20 years to play golf, and Possum Trot Golf Club is always on his list of golf courses to play.

The Veterans Golf Classic concluded with its annual awards banquet, honoring the men and women who have so bravely served our country and celebrating a great week of golf.

The third and final round of the Veterans Golf Classic is in the books. The event enjoyed outstanding weather and great golf as it attracted more than 400 players from 25+ states. Only the Wednesday evening awards banquet remains, but before we get there, enjoy a photo gallery from today's action at River Oaks Golf Plantation.

Sunny skies and plesant temperatures again greeted golfers on Day 2 of the Veteran's Golf Classic. Enjoy a photo gallery from the goings on at Meadowlands Golf Club.

The 16th annual Veterans Golf Classic teed off on a picturesque day in Myrtle Beach as more than 450 golfers are playing on 12 area golf courses in one of the area's most popular events.

The Deal: Sizzlin' Summer Special

Cool Fact: The Granddaddy was Myrtle Beach’s first golf course and it oozes history. Robert White, the first president of the PGA of America, designed the course, and Pine Lakes was the birthplace of Sports Illustrated and the Myrtle Beach golf trip. The course’s rich history certainly contributes to its charm (make sure you tour the clubhouse), but it’s golf you come for and Pine Lakes delivers on that count as well. The course underwent a multi-million dollar renovation project, guaranteeing that this Granddaddy will please future generations of South Carolina golfers as well.

PGA Tour superstar Dustin Johnson was in Myrtle Beach earlier this week, enjoying the place he called home for 10+ years. He also took the time to hit a few trick shots with the Bryan Bros, including pounding golf balls across the Intracoastal Waterway at Grande Dunes! Enjoy.

A stretch of sprawling oak trees line both sides of the road, a centuries old welcome to Heritage Club. The majesty of the trees immediately sets the tone for one of Myrtle Beach’s most memorable rounds of golf, tying players to the property’s rich history.
