Where: Black Desert Resort Golf Course (Tom Weiskopf-designed masterpiece),

A Look Back: The 2024 Inaugural Win
 

Remember the excitement when Matt McCarty claimed the first-ever Black Desert
Championship in October 2024? He triumphed with a 23-under-par 261 at the resort,
winning by a three-stroke margin in just his third PGA TOUR start—a breakout moment
that also earned him exemptions into major tournaments.

    the world golf can be played in paradise.

    our state.

    (this fall) and LPGA Tour (since May 2025) events annually.
