With that, let's learn who won the previous two Creator Classic events of this year.

Who Won the First and Second Creator Classic of 2025?

The PGA Tour’s Creator Classic has quickly become a fan-favorite event, bringing together some of the most popular golf creators for a fun and competitive one-day tournament. After a successful debut in 2024, the series returned this year with not one, but three events.

The first Creator Classic of 2025 was held in March at TPC Sawgrass. Ten golf creators teed it up on the course’s back nine, including familiar faces like Grant Horvat, George Bryan, and Roger Steele. After eight holes, the top three scorers moved on to a playoff on the iconic par-3 17th. Horvat and Bryan tied at one-over, while Chris Solomon followed at two-over. In the playoff, Horvat sank a clutch 15-foot birdie putt to secure the win.

Leaderboard from TPC Sawgrass:

• T1: Grant Horvat (+1)

• T1: George Bryan (+1)

• 3: Chris Solomon (+2)

• 4: Roger Steele (+3)

• 5: Fat Perez (+4)

• T6: Kyle Berkshire (+6)

• T6: Tisha Alyn (+6)

• T6: Gabby Golf Girl (+6)

The second Creator Classic took place at the Philadelphia Cricket Club, just before the Truist Championship. Unlike the first event, this one was a team competition with four squads of three players each. The lineup included Josh Richards, Marques Brownlee, Paige Spiranac, and Brad Dalke, among others.

Players teed off on the back nine of the Wissahickon course, and it soon became a tight contest between Team Richards and Team Brownlee. Both teams ended regulation tied, forcing a sudden-death playoff on the 18th hole. Team Brownlee had a tough hole, carding a quadruple bogey. Team Richards rolled in a bogey to take home the title.

Team Scores from Philly Cricket Club:

• 1: Marques Brownlee, Sean Walsh, Sabrina Andolpho (+3) – Playoff

• T2: Josh Richards, Brad Dalke, Erik Anders Lang (+8) – Playoff winners

• T2: Tyler Tony, Matt Scharff, Paige Spiranac (+8)

• T2: Kyle Lowry, Josh Kelley, Claire Hogle (+8)
