American Golf Classic was built on a belief that great golf competition can do more than crown winners—it can create opportunity.

We saw a gap in the game. Golfers wanted competition that was professional, transparent, and rooted in skill—not gimmicks or unclear promises. At the same time, we believed the game could be a platform for something bigger—one that opens doors, supports development, and gives players a legitimate pathway forward.

So we built two aligned missions—each with a distinct role.

The American Golf Classic serves as the competition platform. We design and operate skill-based golf events with clear rules, professional execution, and national consistency. Every shot, format, and advancement opportunity is built to respect the player and the game.

Swing for a Million exists as the purpose-driven mission behind those opportunities—focused on creating life-changing moments, championship pathways, and meaningful impact through golf.

Together, they work like this:

  • American Golf Classic delivers the competition
  • Swing for a Million delivers the opportunity and impact
  • Skill and performance determine outcomes
  • Integrity governs every step

From Par-3 Challenges to State and National Finals, players always know where they stand and what they are playing for. No confusion. No shortcuts. Just earned opportunity.

We believe:

  • Skill should open doors
  • Competition should be fair and transparent
  • Opportunity should be earned, not promised
  • Golf should leave a positive mark on the people who play it

As American Golf Classic expands nationally, and Swing for a Million advances its mission, our commitment remains the same—to honor the game, reward excellence, and create moments that truly matter.

This is golf competition with purpose.
