Nathan Franks outlasted seven other aspiring pros and eight golf content creators to win The Q at Myrtle Beach, a unique Monday qualifier.
Now, Franks will tee it up in his first PGA Tour event starting Thursday in the Oneflight Myrtle Beach Classic, an opposite-field event at The Dunes Golf & Beach Club in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.
The Q at Myrtle Beach was contested and recorded on Saturday, May 3. It was then produced into a three-hour video and streamed on YouTube on Monday.
Franks was the only golfer to break 70 in the event, shooting 3-under 69 to beat Joe Hooks and Tyler Watts by a shot. Trevor Gutschewski was solo fourth at 1 under, the only other of the 16 golfers to break par. Sean Walsh was the high finisher among the creators. He tied for fifth after an even-par 72.
In March of 2024, Franks was with his South Carolina teammates when they were involved in an accident while driving home from a tournament. The team van T-boned a car that ran a red light and Franks, who earlier that day won medalist honors at the Schenkel Invitational, was injured and missed the subsequent SEC Championship.
The second-year Myrtle Beach Classic will be opposite the signature event Truist Championship, formerly the Wells Fargo Championship).
