Matt Scharff
Golf YouTuber and Good Good co-founder known for making a hole-in-one on a par 4 twice, plus buddy-golf matches, challenges and trick shots.
Sports · TikTok · Updated Oct 20, 2026
Matt Scharff is a golf creator from Kansas and one of the three friends who started Good Good in 2020, with Garrett Clark and Stephen Castaneda. He had been posting golf videos on YouTube since 2016, and his channel bio covers the rest: he is the guy who made a hole-in-one on a par 4, twice, first in Texas in 2021 and again in Mexico in November 2023. Golf Channel announced him in October 2025 as co-host of Big Break x Good Good, a season that was filmed and then cancelled in August 2026 during the fallout from the Callaway ad. His biggest platform of his own is TikTok, with about 840,000 followers.

Questions people ask
Who is Matt Scharff?
Matt Scharff is a golf YouTuber from Kansas who played college golf at Sterling College and co-founded Good Good in 2020 with Garrett Clark and Stephen Castaneda. He and Clark first met around age 14 and reconnected in college. Golf Monthly has described him as a former actor. The early Good Good lineup also included Grant Horvat and Micah Morris, who both left in 2022; Matt is still in the current cast, and his most viewed long-form video is a rematch against Micah.
What are Matt Scharff’s par 4 holes-in-one?
The first came in 2021 at ShadowGlen Golf Club in Texas. The second came in November 2023 on the 17th of the Dunes Course at Diamante in Cabo San Lucas, a par 4 that Golf Monthly listed at 360 yards, during a three-on-three Good Good match. The drive bounced off a mound, rolled onto the green and dropped. Golf Digest covered it too. He also has an ace on a par 3 in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida.
What is Matt Scharff’s handicap?
Golf Monthly reported a 7 in November 2023. He has not published a newer number that we would cite.
Was Matt Scharff in the Good Good Callaway ad?
No. The August 21, 2026 Callaway and Good Good driver ad featured Garrett Clark, and the full account is on his entry. It reached Matt anyway: on August 27, 2026 Golf Channel cancelled Big Break x Good Good, the already filmed reboot he had been announced to co-host in October 2025 and appeared in as the on-course reporter, saying the series could no longer be completed as planned.
How old is Matt Scharff?
He is 27. Famous Birthdays lists April 6, 1999.
What is Matt Scharff’s real name?
Matt Scharff. It is the name Golf Channel used when it announced him for Big Break, and the one he uses on every platform.
How tall is Matt Scharff?
He has not published a number, and we only list what a creator has said about himself.
Where is Matt Scharff from?
Matt Scharff is from Kansas. Famous Birthdays places him there, and Golf Monthly says he first met Garrett Clark as a teenager, when Clark asked to play through his group at a local Kansas club. He now films with Good Good, the company he co-founded, which is based in Frisco, Texas, per D Magazine.
Where can I watch Matt Scharff?
His own videos are on YouTube at @MattScharff and TikTok at @mattscharff; the group videos are at @GoodGood. Instagram is @mattscharff.
What is Matt Scharff’s net worth?
He does not publish a number and neither do we. What is public is how he earns: he is a co-founder of Good Good, which raised $45 million in March 2025 in a round led by Creator Sports Capital, with Manhattan West Private Equity, Sunflower Bank and Peyton Manning’s Omaha Productions taking part, per Business Wire. Its CEO at the time, Matt Kendrick, declined to give a valuation, per GOLF.com, and no outlet we would cite has reported his stake, his prize money or the value of his deals.
Does Matt Scharff have a wife?
Not something we cover.
Who represents Matt Scharff?
His TikTok bio lists a business email, and his YouTube channel has one behind the sign-in. Ames Create does not represent him; we cover him because two par 4 aces on camera is the kind of luck most creators only script, and he got it twice. If that changes, this entry will say so.
Our read
Ames Create does not work with Matt Scharff. This is our view, from a team that works on creator brands for a living.
The format. Matt is the everyman in a group of very good golfers: a single-digit player filmed next to scratch players, which makes his good shots feel earned and his bad ones relatable. His own channel adds challenges, gear and trick shots around the same buddy-golf formula.
Why it travels. Nothing travels in golf like a hole-in-one on video, and a par 4 ace is rarer still. He has two, both caught on camera, and every repost of them carries the Good Good name with it.
Brand fit. Golf equipment, apparel and golf travel fit the content, and the Cabo ace is a resort ad that already happened. As of September 2026 the main question for any partner is Good Good, not Matt: several of the company’s partners stepped back after the August ad.
