Celebrity golf returns to NBC next week with the 2016 American Century
Celebrity Golf Classic, also known as the American Century Championship.
Big-name athletes and celebs will descend on Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course
in Stateline, Nevada, starting on Tuesday, July 19 and wrapping up the
following Sunday. At press time, reigning champion Mark Mulder and US
tennis player Mardy Fish are the +333 co-favorites.

Most of the celebrities on display will be athletes or retired athletes,
and they almost always win the tournament. Mulder, for example, was a
two-time All-Star pitcher for the Oakland Athletics, then won the 2006
World Series with the St. Louis Cardinals. Other champions include
former NFL quarterback Mark Rypien, who won the inaugural event in 1990
and again in 2014. Rypien is the third favorite for this year's Classic
at +450.
Only one “non-athlete” has ever won the Classic, although former General Hospital
star Jack Wagner (+700) did play football and basketball in high
school, and won the Missouri JUCO golf championship in 1980. Wagner took
down the Classic in 2006 and 2011, but at age 56, he might have a
harder time keeping up with the competition next week.
