Guests can take their swings at the Challenge Hole — a 132-yard island green reminiscent of the 17th hole at TPC Sawgrass — and have their shots measured by our Guest Services staff. Those distances are then entered into our online leaderboard. The leaderboard is updated daily, and the winning distance each month will receive a Hall of Fame prize worth $500!

Honoring the Legacy: A Tribute to African-Americans in Golf
A new, permanent exhibition at the Hall of Fame will recognize the triumphs and contributions of African-Americans in the game. With the generous support of The PGA of America, the PGA TOUR and the USGA, the exhibition is expected to open in late spring 2014.
The exhibition will detail the long, rich history of African-Americans in golf, from the difficult beginnings in the late 1800s for pioneers such as John Shippen, to the progress and challenges of today. The exhibition will also highlight the struggles and successes of notable golfers like World Golf Hall of Fame member Charlie Sifford during the Civil Rights era and major personalities such as Althea Gibson, Joe Louis and Tiger Woods.
