The American Century Championship will return to Lake Tahoe July 8-12.

The Golden State Warriors’ Steph Curry, the Green Bay Packers’ Aaron Rodgers, Phoenix Suns legend Charles Barkley and two-time defending champion Tony Romo are among the sports and entertainment stars planning to compete and charity fundraise for nine hours of live NBC Sports coverage over three days at Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course, the event announced.

The event will return as a live television event but without spectators.  

All prize monies will be donated to COVID-19 relief and area non-profits, the event announced.

Romo expressed his support for the decision to move forward with the tournament amid the coronavirus pandemic.

“The event has a tremendous tradition and is critical to that beautiful resort region,” he said. “It’ll be fun to try to win again but the sense of community and charity fundraising will be most important.”

The competition is a 54-hole modified Stableford format tournament often referred to as the Super Bowl of celebrity golf.

Jerry Rice and entertainment personalities including Ray Romano, Alfonso Ribeiro and Larry the Cable Guy are also committed to the event.

Several NFL coaches are expected, including Sean Payton, Saints; Matt Nagy, Bears; and Frank Reich, Colts.

Three-time winner Mark Mulder and two-time champion Jack Wagner are also scheduled to play in the event.

First-timers who have committed include Chris Harrison of The Bachelor; former MLB stars Adrian Beltre, Chase Utley and Brian McCann; plus Cooper Kupp, wide receiver and Andrew Whitworth, offensive tackle of the Los Angeles Rams. 

Additional celebrity commitments will be announced in mid-June.
