IVINS, Utah — Let’s cut the folks who organized the merchandise tent at the inaugural Black Desert Championship a little slack for perhaps lagging a tiny bit behind some of the other stores that dot the PGA Tour schedule.
To be fair, there’s an ample, if somewhat generic, series of offerings, from hats to a handful of T-shirt choices, to the typical assortments of flags and ball markers.
There are two things to consider when judging the tent, which sits near the fan village with a stunning view at the Black Desert Resort:
- The view from the merch tent is perhaps the best on Tour
- The group that got involved in supplying the merch tent is just getting started, with having had only a handful of months to plan for the 2024 event

So what should be expected in the future? The fact that shorts bearing Tom Weiskopf’s signature have quickly become among the most popular on-site will likely lead to a wider array of similar items next year. And the staff has already discussed a number of clever product drops for the tournament’s 2025 edition, including Weiskopf bobbleheads. Black Desert was Weiskopf’s final golf course design.
