LPGA Tournament of Champions 2024


The 2024 Hilton Grand Vacations (HGV) Tournament of Champions, an LPGA Tour event, took place January 18–21, 2024 at Lake Nona Golf & Country Club in Orlando, Florida. The tournament featured 35 of the LPGA Tour’s top players, nearly 50 celebrities, and private concerts by Pitbull, Elle King, Styx, and REO Speedwagon. The tournament is considered one of the most unique on tour, as it features LPGA champions playing alongside sports and entertainment celebrities. It also marks the start of the LPGA Tour season.

The amount of planning that goes into arranging the local supporting talent is difficult to articulate, but this event featured 8 DJs and for the first time, a violinist. Together, we performed at four different locations including the Party Deck on the 18th Hole, Silent Disco, Stage B, and the Afterparty.

I cannot express how grateful I am to have been part of this event, but I will try (after all, this is a blog post). Let’s start with having the chance to perform live immediately following the Pitbull concert…no pressure or anything! That night, I was also dealing with a health issue affecting my eyelid, which later required surgery. Regardless, of how I looked (pretty gnarly) and how I felt (swollen and blind), the show must go on right? And so it did! I don’t recall my entire set list, but I remember a few moments where the crowd responded well to old school remixes.

I’m especially gratefully for the people around me, which included friends, family, and staff. HGV makes its name on hospitality, and they never disappoint! My friends and family continually show up, show love, and show support! Big thanks to the DJ team and Violinist who provided about 50 hours of entertainment! Overall, this event was a success, and it would not be without all of the amazing people around me. We win as a team!
