Charleston native Darius Rucker along with the rest of the Hootie and the Blowfish crew hold a celebrity golf tournament each year on the Monday following The Masters golf tournament. The tournament is held to raise money for the Hootie & The Blowfish Foundation, which supports the educational needs of South Carolina and the South Carolina Junior Golf Foundation. So far, the event has donated more than $4.5 million to it’s cause, and draws in thousands of spectators to the North Myrtle Beach and surrounding areas annually.  The tournament originated in Columbia, South Carolina in the early 90’s before Hootie and the Blowfish were a household name.  The tournament has been held in Myrtle Beach since 2003 and is still going strong.
