The Compliance Solutions Championship will host hall of fame golfer Jack Nicklaus at Jimmie Austin OU Golf Club for the 2024 Celebrity Shootout this June.
According to a release from the tournament, Nicklaus will compete alongside Oklahoma greats in an exhibition match featuring two teams of celebrities. Each team will be representing one of the tournament’s two main charity beneficiaries, AustismOklahoma and Folds of Honor.

“I want to thank Mark Lammert for inviting me to his event, and I look forward to being in Oklahoma in June,” Nicklaus said in a statement. “The Korn Ferry Tour and events like the Compliance Solutions Championship are extremely important in providing touring professionals a stepping stone to the PGA TOUR. The game of golf is so deep with talent, and often it’s about just getting a chance.”
