Livescore
The PNC Championship is unique on the pro golf circuit and it’s a great way to end the year, with fathers, mothers and grandfathers playing with their sons, daughters or even grandkids.
The Ritz-Carlton in Orlando is the host venue once again for this 20-team event, with each duo consisting of a past major champion and a family member.
The format for the 36-hole, two-day tournament is, according to the PNC Championship website, as follows:
“On each hole, each player drives and the best drive is selected. Each player then plays a second shot from the spot where the selected drive lies, and the best second shot is selected. This process is repeated until the hole is completed.”
