Field and Format Unveiled for Creator Classic ahead of Truist Championship

In a few weeks, Pro Shop (Skratch's Parent Company) and PGA TOUR Studios will produce the second of three Creator Classics this season at the Truist Championship—formally known as the Wells Fargo Championship—at the Philadelphia Cricket Club’s Wissahickon Course. Traditionally contested at Quail Hollow Club in North Carolina, The Truist Championship is being hosted away from its annual venue this year to allow for the PGA Championship to be contested there the following week.

Format For Creator Classic at Philly Cricket presented by YouTube

On Wednesday, May 7—the day before the first round of the Truist Championship—eight content creators and four celebrities will split into four, three-person teams. Each team will consist of two creators and one celebrity. The format will be alternate shot in a 9-hole competition (holes 10-17) before the top two teams advance to a sudden-death playoff.

“The Creator Classic Series is about shining a spotlight on dynamic creators and their relatable personalities more so than witnessing world-class golf shots or success on the course,” Chad Mumm, co-founder of Pro Shop, said in a statement. “As we introduce new YouTubers and their respective fans to the world of professional golf, constructing a team event that welcomes an even more diverse array of skillsets was the natural next step in the Series’ return.”
