The Jack Nicklaus-designed St John Course will rejoin the Challenger PGA Tour of Australasia tournament rotation with the return of the Heritage Classic at The Heritage Golf and Country Club. The 36-hole facility, the jewel of the Yarra Valley’s golf offering north-east of Melbourne, will kick off the second half of the 2023/2024 PGA Tour of Australasia season.

To be played January 11-14, the 2024 Heritage Classic is the first in a three-year commitment that will re-establish The Heritage Golf and Country Club as a first-class tournament venue and highlight the Yarra Valley as a golf destination with a wide array of off-course opportunities. A then promising amateur, three-time DP World Tour winner Lucas Herbert lost to David Bransdon in a playoff when the Heritage Classic was last held in 2013.

The 2024 Heritage Classic will offer $200,000 in prizemoney and further bolsters a growing Challenger PGA Tour of Australasia season.
