A number of golf fans are all saying the same thing after watching the much-anticipated Q at Myrtle Beach on Tuesday.
There was a lot of excitement heading into this week. Plenty of golf fans, including those who follow a lot of content on YouTube, were looking forward to seeing the likes of Peter Finch, Micah Morris and Grant Horvat compete for a spot at the inaugural Myrtle Beach Classic on the PGA Tour.
The 16-man field consisted of eight content creators, with Luke Kwon, Fat Perez of Bob Does Sports and George Bryan also in contention.
Meanwhile, eight professional golfers were also involved.
