Tickets sales are open for the tournament’s 20th year of play, which will be open to a limited number of spectators who must purchase a seat prior to the event.

In partnership with the PGA Tour, Commerce Department and Department of Health and Environmental Control, event organizer South Carolina Charities will implement testing, social distancing and screening protocols as well as mask requirements on the property, according to a news release.

“While this year’s tournament will look different, we are ready to bring professional golf back to the Upstate with a limited number of spectators,” Bob Nitto, president of South Carolina Charities Inc., said in the release. “We will continuously work with our local officials and partners at the PGA TOUR to ensure we are taking appropriate precautions to create a safe and responsibly-executed event. Our beneficiary groups have been on the frontlines of this pandemic, and we look forward to making a significant impact on each of the organizations that benefit from our tournament.”

Cash and walk-up ticket purchases will not be accepted at the event. Parking is included with all tickets and complimentary daily grounds admission is available for children under 18 with an adult ticket holder, as well as veterans, active-duty and reserve military personnel and immediate family with a valid ID.

The tournament will also host a military and first responders weekend on June 10 to 13 in support of the Upstate Warrior Solution and the Palmetto State Chapter of Folder of Honor. The Birdies for Charity program presented by Michelin North America, Greer CPW and Capital Corp. will continue to raise additional funding for charities by allowing individuals to gift a one-time flat donation or pledge a donation for each birdie during the tournament starting at one cent, according to the release.

Proceeds from the golf tournament will go to at least six Upstate charities. (Photo/Provided)The funds raised from tournament programs, including tickets sales, volunteer hours and Birdies for Charity, have allowed the BMW Charity Pro-Am to donate over $13.7 million in charitable funds to the tournament’s featured beneficiaries and ancillary charities in the Upstate community, according to the release. Beneficiaries of the 2021 tournament include Mobile Meals of Spartanburg, Roper Mountain Science Center, Cliffs Residents Outreach, Cancer Society of Greenville County, Meyer Center for Special Children and Gibbs Cancer Center and Research Institute.
