The American Century Championship is a celebrity golf tournament in Nevada, United States. It is held during the second full week of July at Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course in Stateline, at the shore of Lake Tahoe. The course is at the southeast edge of the lake, at an average elevation exceeding 6,230 feet (1,900 m) above sea level. The American Century Championship tournament was developed to fill air time after NBC lost the airing rights to Major League Baseball. It was originally titled The Celebrity Golf Association, the brainchild of Jim Karvellas. Initially, the tournament had no title sponsor, but landed three hall of fame players from different sports: John Elway, Michael Jordan, and Mario Lemieux. Karvellas is quoted as saying: “They are here at Caesars Tahoe this week, because they believe in the concept, they love the game of golf and they like to compete. I shall be forever indebted to them for that.” The first tournament was held 33 years ago in 1990 and sponsored by NBC, which broadcasts the second and third-round coverage on the weekend. Isuzu sponsored the tournament from 1991 through 1998, succeeded by current sponsor American Century Investments in 1999. More information...
