Grant Horvat

Golf YouTuber who films matches against Tour pros and other creators, a former Good Good member who now co-runs the creator league Your Golf Tour.

Sports · YouTube · Updated Oct 19, 2026

Grant Horvat is a golf YouTuber who left the creator group Good Good in late 2022 to run his own channel, and built it around matches with Tour pros, most visibly a run of games with Phil Mickelson. He won the PGA Tour’s Creator Classic at TPC Sawgrass in March 2025, then turned down a PGA Tour start that July because he would not be allowed to film his round. In March 2026 he and the Bryan Bros announced Your Golf Tour, a 16-player creator league, and in July 2026 he apologized to Michael Block over how an episode ended. His YouTube channel has about 1.8 million subscribers.

Questions people ask

Who is Grant Horvat?

Grant Horvat is a golf YouTuber whose channel, Grant Horvat Golf, is built on matches: against other creators, against Tour pros and, since 2024, alongside Phil Mickelson. He played college golf at Palm Beach Atlantic University, was part of Good Good until late 2022, signed with TaylorMade in January 2023 and won the Creator Classic at TPC Sawgrass on March 12, 2025, with a 15-foot birdie in a playoff. In 2026 he co-runs Your Golf Tour with the Bryan Bros.

Why did Grant Horvat leave Good Good? What happened between him and Good Good?

He left in late 2022, around the same time as Micah Morris. In a video called There’s Two Sides to Every Story, he gave few details and said he was not allowed to share more, Golficity reported on December 5, 2022. The Good Good side, per Golf Monthly in January 2023: Garrett Clark said Horvat “wants to only do his own brand, his own channel,” and Tom Broders said the group offered him a strong deal to stay. Neither side has described a falling out beyond that. In 2026 Clark is one of the 16 players on Horvat’s Your Golf Tour, per MyGolfSpy.

What happened to Grant Horvat? What is he doing now?

As of October 2026 he is still posting on his own channel and running Your Golf Tour, the league he and the Bryan Bros announced on March 25, 2026 with Golf Digest. It has four team captains (Horvat, George Bryan, Wesley Bryan and Brad Dalke), four events from Pursell Farms in Alabama to a three-day finale at Wynn Las Vegas, and rounds that run on the Horvat, Bryan Bros and YGT YouTube channels. His line on it: “Our vision is to create a structure for top players to perform under real pressure.” The biggest story of his 2026 so far was the Michael Block episode in July.

Why did Grant Horvat apologize to Michael Block? What happened?

In the first Your Golf Tour event, which premiered in early July 2026, Block played as Horvat’s wild card and was cut after nine holes under the league’s elimination format. Part two ended on Block reacting with frustration at the short trip, and viewers said the clip portrayed him unfairly, GolfMagic reported on July 5, 2026. Horvat posted on X that “myself and the team at YGT want to apologise” and that “we made a mistake by leaving the last segment in the video.” We found no public response from Block. Golf Digest noted that some fans read the apology as promotion, and said plainly that it did not know which reading was right.

What happened with Grant Horvat and Phil Mickelson?

They became regular partners, not rivals, and we found no report of a falling out. Their first match, in July 2024 at Rancho Santa Fe, ended with Horvat winning and Mickelson agreeing to wear joggers at the Open; part two launched Mickelson’s HyFlyers GC channel, per MyGolfSpy. Horvat won a rematch that November, and in December 2024 they announced a 2v2 series as a team starting in January 2025, opening against Dustin and Austin Johnson, per LIV Golf. In April 2025 they paired again at The Duels, a scramble Horvat co-created with LIV Golf at Doral, per GolfMagic.

Why did Grant Horvat turn down the PGA Tour?

On April 16, 2025 he posted that he had been invited to a PGA Tour event, the Barracuda Championship near Lake Tahoe, and was “truly on the fence,” per GolfMagic. On July 15, 2025, the week of the event, he withdrew. He said “I was not going to be allowed to film my round during tournament play,” which mattered to him as someone “doing YouTube for a living and wanting to document everything I do,” per Fox News. Golf.com explained the Tour’s side: its media rules keep filming inside the gates to the Tour and its TV partners.

Why did Grant Horvat leave TaylorMade? Did he leave Takomo?

He did not fully leave TaylorMade, as far as anything we could source shows. He signed with TaylorMade in January 2023, and on January 3, 2025 he announced “I am officially an owner of Takomo Golf,” moving to Takomo irons and wedges while saying he was still a TaylorMade athlete for driver, woods and ball, per Golf Monthly. In October 2025 MyGolfSpy listed TaylorMade woods and wedges, Takomo 201 irons and an L.A.B. Golf putter in his bag. We found no report that he has left Takomo, and Takomo’s site still pictured him in October 2026.

How old is Grant Horvat? What is his real name?

He is 28. Famous Birthdays gives his birthday as August 24, 1998. Grant Horvat is the name he plays and posts under, and the one on his college roster.

Where is Grant Horvat from?

Grosse Ile, Michigan, a Metro Detroit community, per Metro Detroit Golfers. He spent a year of high school in Pennsylvania, moved to Stuart, Florida, at 15, played at South Fork High School and then at Palm Beach Atlantic, which lists Stuart as his hometown.

What about his family, appearance or personal life?

Not something we cover.

Where can I watch Grant Horvat?

YouTube @GrantHorvatGolfs and Instagram @granthorvat. Your Golf Tour rounds run on his channel, the Bryan Bros channel and the YGT channel, and his Mickelson matches are split between his channel and HyFlyers GC.

What is Grant Horvat’s net worth?

He does not publish a number and neither do we.

Who represents Grant Horvat?

We did not find a management company named on his channels or in trade press. Ames Create does not represent him; we cover him because people keep asking what happened with Good Good, Phil Mickelson and Michael Block, and most of the answer is on the record. If that changes, this entry will say so.

Our read

Ames Create does not work with Grant Horvat. This is our view, from a team that works on creator brands for a living.

The format. The format is a real match with something on it: strokes given, a penalty for the loser, a Tour pro on the other side. He plays well enough to make the result uncertain, which is what makes a creator-versus-pro video worth finishing.

Why it travels. Every match with a famous partner travels twice, once on his channel and once on theirs, and the Mickelson games put him in golf press as well as YouTube. Your Golf Tour pushes the same idea further, spreading each event across three channels.

Brand fit. Golf equipment, apparel, resorts and anything sold to people who play. He already owns part of a club company and plays another brand’s woods, so a hardgoods partner would be negotiating around existing ties. The Block episode is a reminder that a league built on drama needs editing that treats guests fairly.
