American Century Celebrity Golf Championship

The American Century Celebrity Golf Championship is from July 14 through July 19, at the Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course, Highway 50 at Lake Parkway, South Lake Tahoe, NV. The tournament features big cash prizes for the players, but its real purpose is to support charities like the Lance Armstrong Foundation.

Over 80 celebrities and sports stars are scheduled to play in the 2009 American Century Celebrity Golf Championship. A few of those you might see include Michael Jordan, John Elway, Wayne Gretzky, Oliver Hudson, Mike Eruzione, Charles Barkley, Marcus Allen, Bode Miller, Dan Quayle, Jerry Rice, and many, many more. The forecast is for excellent weather up at Lake Tahoe, making this a great event for star gazing.

Tickets are available online or at the gate. They are $15 for practice rounds and the Lake Tahoe Celeb-Am Tournament. It's $25 for the Celebrity Golf Championship from Friday through Sunday. Up to two children 10 and under are free with a paying adult. The number of gallery tickets sold per day is limited.
