Dave Portnoy, the irreverent founder of Barstool Sports, and the crew from the ForePlay podcast have decided to bring a fresh twist to the golf world. They’re planning a Creator Golf Tournament, and if the initial buzz is anything to go by, it could be equal parts chaos and brilliance. Think of it as the Ryder Cup meets reality TV, with just enough shenanigans to remind you it’s still Barstool.
A Tournament Like No Other
Unlike traditional golf events, this one aims to spotlight the personalities that drive golf content creation. The idea? Gather influencers, golfers, and media personalities in a no-holds-barred, wildly entertaining tournament. Details are still sparse, but Portnoy and the ForePlay guys have hinted at a mix of skill, trash talk, and viral moments.
The goal isn’t just competition; it’s to create content that golf fans (and even non-fans) can’t stop watching. Expect over-the-top celebrations, mic’d-up players, and maybe even a few golf balls flying in unintended directions.
Who’s in the Lineup?
While the full roster hasn’t been revealed, you can bet it’ll feature a mix of golf influencers, social media stars, and a few surprises. Early speculation includes appearances by:
- ForePlay’s Trent, Frankie, Riggs, and Lurch: These guys are a given. Whether they’re playing or narrating the chaos, they’ll be front and center.
- Dave Portnoy: El Presidente himself is likely to tee it up. If his pizza reviews are any indication, his golf game will come with plenty of commentary.
- Big-time Golf YouTubers: Think Bob Does Golf, or Good Good. Expect influencers like Grace Charis or Tequila at the Turn to bring their competitive edge. Unlike celebs who don’t need the prize, these creators will be playing to win—and win real money.
- Wild Cards: Maybe a celebrity or two who loves golf but has never swung a club in public. Will there be a wildcard entry for fans? Don’t count it out.
Why This Could Be Huge
Golf has always had a reputation for being serious and buttoned-up. That’s slowly changed in recent years thanks to social media creators who bring humor, relatability, and personality to the game. This tournament aims to amplify that trend. It’s not about pristine swings or spotless etiquette—it’s about making golf fun and approachable for everyone.
The Barstool brand’s influence ensures the event will get eyeballs. Love them or hate them, Portnoy and his team know how to create viral moments. Add ForePlay’s loyal golf audience, and this tournament could mark a new chapter for how golf is consumed by younger fans.
What’s Next?
Details about the tournament’s format, location, and date are expected soon. Fans are already speculating about matchups, potential drama, and who might steal the show. Will it live up to the hype? Time will tell, but one thing’s for sure—this isn’t going to be your average day on the course.
