Here are some of the best photos from the 2023 PNC Championship.

The PNC Championship is one of the most fun events on the schedule and this year’s edition should be no different.

Tiger Woods, after making his return to golf at the Hero World Challenge earlier this month, will play the 36-hole two-day event at the Ritz-Carlton Golf Club in Orlando, Florida, with his son, Charlie. Team Woods finished runner-up to the Dalys in 2021.

Other major champions in the field include Justin Thomas (playing with his dad, Mike), Nelly Korda (father Petr), John Daly (son John II) and Annika Sorenstam (son Will).

Vijay and Qass Singh are back in Florida to defend their title.

Here’s how to watch the annual 36-hole silly season family event in Florida.

Originally called The Father/Son Challenge when it debuted back in 1995, the PNC Championship returns this week with the 26th edition of the annual family hit-and-giggle.

The field consists of 20 two-player teams featuring a PGA Tour, Champions tour or LPGA player and one of their family members. The professional player must either be a major champion or winner of the Players Championship and the family member cannot be a current touring professional.

After a two-day, 36-hole scramble, the winner takes home the Willie Park Trophy, named after the father-son British Open champions, Willie Park Sr. and Willie Park Jr.

Tiger Woods and son Charlie officially in field for PNC Championship

Team Woods is back.

Fans of Tiger Woods are going to get to see him plenty in the next month.

First, he’s set to make his competitive return next week at the Hero World Challenge in the Bahamas. Then, two weeks after that, he’ll return to Orlando with his son, Charlie, as they team up again for the PNC Championship at the Ritz-Carlton Golf Club in Orlando.

The pairing was announced Wednesday, as if there’s not enough to give thanks for this week.

This will be their fourth time playing together, finishing runner-up to Team Daly in 2021. Last year, Team Woods finished T-8 at 20 under. Charlie, 14, helped his high school win a state championship in Florida earlier this month.

Vijay Singh and his son, Qass, won the tournament last year. Other teams in the field this year include Justin Thomas and father Mike, the Singhs, Nelly Korda and her father Petr, Annika Sorenstam and her son Will and many others.

Six past winners highlight early commits for 2023 PNC Championship field

Vijay and Qass Singh will be back to defend their title in Orlando.

Six past champions have confirmed their entry for the 2023 PNC Championship, including defending champions Vijay and Qass Singh.

Vijay will be joined by colleagues John Daly (winner in 2021), Justin Thomas (2020), David Duval (2016), Stewart Cink (2013) and Bernhard Langer (2005, 2006, 2014, 2019) for the annual parent-child event at the Ritz-Carlton Golf Club Orlando, Grande Lakes on Dec. 14-17.

“I can’t tell you what it meant to win last year with Qass after 16 attempts. This tournament is so special to us, and it is such an important week for our family every year,” said Vijay. “We love everything about the tournament, from playing amongst so many legends of the game, to getting to know their kids, to just spending quality time with my son as we enjoy this unique inside-the-ropes experience together. I have played in so many tournaments all around the world over the years, but it genuinely is hard to think of a week that I look forward to and enjoy more than the PNC Championship.”

This year’s event, the 12th with PNC Bank as the title sponsor, will be broadcast live on NBC, Golf Channel and Peacock. Last year the PNC Championship boasted a field with 73 major titles. The tournament features 20 players and their relatives competing in a two-day, 36-hole scramble for the Willie Park Trophy. To qualify, players must have won a major championship or the Players Championship, and their partner must not hold any status on a professional tour.
