The 2025 PNC Championship returns on December 20-21 at the Ritz-Carlton Golf Club in Orlando, Florida, bringing together 20 teams made up of major champions and their family partners in a fun, competitive 36-hole scramble format to cap off the golf calendar. Unlike typical PGA Tour events, this tournament blends elite golf with heartwarming family dynamics, allowing legends of the game to compete alongside their sons, daughters, and other relatives.
Part of the appeal is that the PNC Championship isn’t an official PGA Tour event; it’s a celebration of both golfing excellence and family bonds. But with fields stacked with former major winners and beloved figures in the sport, the tournament remains a fan favorite each holiday season.
A Star-Studded, Family-Centric Field

One storyline heading into this year’s event is the absence of Tiger Woods and son Charlie Woods. The duo had been staple figures at the PNC Championship for several years, narrowly missing out on the title before, but Tiger’s ongoing recovery from surgery has kept them out of this year’s field.
Format and What to Expect on the Course
The PNC Championship is played over 36 holes in a scramble format, meaning both players tee off, then the team selects the best shot and both hit from that position. This continues throughout the hole, encouraging aggressive play and collaborative strategy. It’s a format that favors both big hitting and sharp short game skills, and it often leads to low team scores and exciting finishes.
Because the event isn’t a part of the official PGA Tour schedule, there’s no cut and no FedEx Cup points at stake, but there is a $1.085 million purse, with $200,000 going to the winning duo. That structure allows players to compete more freely and focus on fun while still bringing their best golf.
