Shriners Children's OPEN

The Shriners Children’s Open was a professional golf tournament on the PGA TOUR, held annually each October in Las Vegas, Nevada, from 1983 to 2024. Renowned not only for its competitive field and iconic moments, including Tiger Woods’ first PGA Tour victory, the tournament also gained global recognition for its powerful charitable mission in support of Shriners Children’s, which provides specialized medical care to children regardless of a family’s ability to pay or insurance status.

Though the tournament officially ended in 2024, its impact continues both in the golf world and in the lives of children and families it helped for over four decades.

The Shriners Children’s Open wasn’t just about golf it was about giving back. Each year, the tournament helped shine a light on the incredible work done by Shriners Children’s.

Each year, Shriners Children’s Patient Ambassadors were prominently featured during tournament week sharing their stories on-site, across broadcasts, and through special appearances. These courageous children became the faces of the tournament, reminding audiences worldwide of the cause behind the competition.

The tournament was broadcast internationally, bringing both professional golf and the Shriners Children’s mission into millions of homes around the globe.
