As the first PGA tour tournament on continental soil, the Humana Challenge helps kick start the early PGA season by having stars of the entertainment world battle it out with some of golf's finest in a sensational four-round, 72-hole celebrity pro-am in honor of the great Bob Hope. Over the years, the tournament has earned over $52 million in donations for Coachella Valley charities like the Eisenhower Medical Center, and from January 14th through the 20th a laundry list of phenomenal golfers and plenty of Hollywood stars are ready to hit the greens of the Palmer and Nicklaus Private Courses and La Quinta Country Club to keep the momentum going.
Defending Humana Challenge champion Mark Wilson will compete in the $5.6 million event alongside four-time major champion Phil Mickelson, reigning FedEx Cup champ Brandt Snedeker and top pros like Matt Kuchar, Bill Haas, and Zach Johnson. Spectators will also see stars like Carson Daly and Ron White; musicians like Michael Bolton, Alice Cooper, and former Eagles bandmember Don Felder; actors like Peter Gallagher, Anthony Anderson, and Michael Pena; and sports stars like MLB Hall of Famer Ozzie Smith and NFL greats Ahmad Rashad and Eric Dickerson. With the action teeing off on January 17th, now is the time to get your 2013 Humana Challenge tickets to see this incredible event live.
