Day 1 Preview

The American Century Championship will officially get underway on Friday morning and things will look a little different for fans used to taking in PGA events.

Not only does the tournament feature celebrities and non-golf professional athletes, but it is also a three-round, 54-hold event. Instead of stroke or match play, the American Century uses a modified Stableford scoring format with points awarded for each hole as follows:

  • 10 Points: Double Eagle
  • 8 Points: Hole-in-One
  • 6 Points: Eagle
  • 3 Points: Birdie
  • 1 Point: Par
  • 0 Points: Bogey
  • -2 Points: Double Bogey or Worse

Romo won the 2022 tournament, marking his third victory at the American Century Championship. He'll be joined this week by a swam of current and former NFL stars—including Mahomes, Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen, New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers, Hall of Famer Emmitt Smith and free-agent kicker Robbie Gould.

As Gould recently noted, the sense of camaraderie and friendship is part of the fun of the celebrity event.

"It's kind of a unique deal where you get to see some of your buddies, you get to see some clients you've played with or become friends with," Gould said, per Ryan Gaydos of Fox News.

This is far from a football-centric event, however, and Curry will see many familiar faces as well. His father, Dell Curry, and brother, Seth Curry, will also participate. So will current and former NBA stars like 2021 tournament winner Vinny Del Negro, Ray Allen, Andre Iguodala and Charles Barkley.

Non-sports fans who just want to do a little celebrity-watching will have players to follow too—including Cheadle, musician Jay DeMarcus, Saturday Night Live star Colin Jost. actor Michael Peña, former U.S. Vice President Dan Quayle and WWE superstar The Miz.

It should be a fun-filled three days on the beautiful shores of Lake Tahoe, but viewers should expect some quality golf from many of the golfers. Participants like Romo and former MLB pitcher Mark Mulder—each of whom is a three-time winner—take the competition seriously.

Will Romo, Del Negro, Mulder or 2020 winner Mardy Fish win the 2023 American Century Championship, or will we add a new title-holder to the list? Tune in beginning this Friday to find out.
