The PNC Championship is the final tournament of 2024 and, with the likes of Tiger Woods, Nelly Korda and Annika Sorestam teeing it up in Orlando, it’s set to be yet another feel-good watch.
First played in 1995, there are 20 pairs competing for the title and they are made up of a variety of family pairings. For example, Woods is playing alongside his son, Charlie, whilst Korda is featuring alongside her father Petr.
To qualify for the tournament, which is run by the PGA Tour Champions, players must have either won a Major tournament or a Players Championship. Therefore, the field is littered with quality, as well as multiple Hall of Famers, such as Gary Player and Lee Trevino.
Last year, it was Bernhard Langer and son, Jason, who picked up the title, with the victory an historic fifth for Langer, who has won the trophy with both Jason and his other son, Stefan.
So, who will be adding their names to the Roll of Honor on Sunday? Well, four of the Golf Monthly team have scoured the field and picked one pairing that we each believe could win the PNC Championship.
PNC Championship: The Course
Ritz-Carlton Golf Club -Grande Lakes was designed by Greg Norman and features tough, undulating greens, wide and generous fairways, as well as multiple hazards off the tee.
Being a pairs event, there will be four tees in place and these will be Gold, White, Red and Blue. You may wonder, how are these determined? Well, each player is assigned one of the colors, depending on age and ability.
The Ritz-Carlton Golf Club – Grande Lakes has a number of rare natural elements and, because of the scramble format and wide fairways, we can expect scoring to be low. What’s also worth noting is that the wind can be a factor, last year it reached a near 30mph.
