The Platinum Classic was a golf tournament on the Sunshine Tour. It was founded in 1995, and was played at the nine-hole Mooinooi Golf Club, North West Province, South Africa, although the first event had to be moved to Rustenburg when the greens at Mooinooi were vandalised.{{cite news |url=http://www.pretorianews.co.za/index.php?fArticleId=4686343&fSectionId=1742 |title=Ex-champs gather at Mooinooi |publisher=Pretoria News |date=30 October 2008 |accessdate=2008-10-31}}

The tournament was traditionally held in October but was moved to March in 2012 and September in 2013. The prize fund was R500,000.
