Getting a group of celebrities to play a few rounds of golf over a weekend isn't an especially difficult job for tournament organizers. The 2023 American Century Championship is no exception, with a strong field of athletes and celebrities coming back to Lake Tahoe for one of golf's biggest celebrity tournaments.
Defending champion Tony Romo will be looking for a fourth overall title, but plenty of golfers could upend him in the field. Stephen Curry is back, as is 2021 winner Vinny Del Negro.
Three participants from "The Match" in June will be in the field, with Curry competing against Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce again. Klay Thompson will be the only one absent.

Outside of athletes, Chace Crawford ("The Boys"), Alfonso Ribeiro ("The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air"), Ray Romano ("Everybody Loves Raymond") and Miles Teller ("Top Gun: Maverick") will all be teeing off.
Perhaps the most popular player on the course will be Pat McAfee, host of "The Pat McAfee Show," which just moved to ESPN. He and co-host A.J. Hawk will be playing this year.
