Josh Rackley is your 2025 South Carolina Open champion!

After two rain delays, Rackley stayed dialed in and carded an 11-under finish, highlighted by back-to-back birdies on 12 & 13 and a clutch eagle down the stretch. 🏆

He takes home the title and a handcrafted FH ...Wadsworth champion’s bag built with timeless style and premium craftsmanship for golfers who travel like they play: with excellence.

Congratulations, Josh!

The final round of the 74th South Carolina Open is under way and the featured group just teed off.

Who will come out on top? Only one player can take home the trophy—and it all comes down to today. 🏆⛳️

We had some pros go low today at the South Carolina Open. Josh Rackley carded a smooth 6-under to take the solo lead, while Joe DeMaio bounced back in a big way, following up yesterday’s 74 with a career best round of 64 and currently tied for fourth.

Both are sitting strong heading into... tomorrow’s final round.

This Father’s Day, we’ve teamed up with @vortex_golf to hook up one lucky winner with an unforgettable prize. Whether your dad’s a weekend golfer, grill master, or your everyday hero, this one’s for him.
