How scoring works in the American Century Championship golf tournament

Unlike most PGA events, the American Century Championship utilizes a modified Stableford format over the course of the tournament’s 54 holes. So instead of scoring in relation to par, points are awarded for how each player fares on any given hole. So an Albatross (3 under par on a hole) earns a participant 10 points; a hole-in-one is worth 8 points; an eagle (2 under) counts for 6 points; a birdie (1 under) merits 3 points; par (even) is worth 1 point; a bogey (1 over) counts for 0 points; and a double bogey or worse (2 over+) counts for negative 2 points. Which means that players can’t score worse than a double bogey (wouldn’t that be nice on every round?).

Whoever has the most points after three rounds wins the whole thing. Last year (and in 2020), that honor went to former tennis pro Mardy Fish. “This is the one you really want to win. American Century is really the Super Bowl,” Fish told NBC Sports last year.

Fish will yet again be in the mix this year. Alongside fellow two-time winner Curry, he’s favored to win the tourney yet again with +240 odds of winning. Other celebs with favorable winning odds include former NHL star Joe Pavelski, former NFL QB and current analyst Tony Romo, and former MLB star and current analyst John Smoltz and NBA legend Charles Barkley.

But that’s just scratching the surface of big names participating.

There’s also plenty of star power in the booth, as host Steve Sands and analyst Peter Jacobsen will anchor NBC Sports’ live tournament coverage. They’ll be joined by Jimmy Roberts, Roger Maltbie, Smylie Kaufman, and Kira K. Dixon. You can also catch Kaufman and Dixon reprising NBC Sports’ PGA TOUR Happy Hour interview segments at Hole 17, the tournament’s official party hole. The par-3 borders the beach, and is jam packed with music, fans, boats, booze, and all sorts of fun stuff you don’t generally see at your average golf tournament.
