Before the 2024 Tour Championship gets underway Thursday morning in Atlanta, 16 golf social media stars took on East Lake Golf Club in the first-ever Creator Classic. Some of the names in the field were Wesley and George Bryan, Fat Perez of Bob Does Sports, Paige Spiranac, Garrett Clark of Good Good Golf and Luke Kwon.

East Lake went under an extensive renovation over the last 12 months and parts of the golf course are unrecognizable. The creators gave the second nine at East Lake a spin before the top 30 in the FedEx Cup Standings teed it up in the playoff finale.

The Creator Classic was a hit with golf fans across social media. Here's what they said about the event's debut.
