Come to This Year's Event – November 12-15

128 world-class golfers, 4 magical days and heart-pounding tradition come together on the Walt Disney World Resort championship golf courses every year for the Children's Miracle Network Classic. Experience the spirit of competition and the excitement of PGA TOUR golf from November 12-15, 2009.

Watch the drama unfold as defending champion Davis Love III attempts to hold his title and prove that he still has the magic. With his win at the 2008 Children's Miracle Network Classic, Love was able to accomplish a lifetime exemption on the PGA TOUR for achieving his 20th career victory while being on TOUR for over 15 years.

The Event's History

2009 will mark the 39th year of the PGA TOUR event at Walt Disney World Resort, which returns to the award-winning Disney's Magnolia and Disney's Palm Golf Courses. Be a part of the longest running PGA TOUR event in Central Florida—a historic tournament that began with 3 consecutive wins by Jack Nicklaus in 1971, 1972 and 1973. The Children's Miracle Network Classic also continues to attract the best players in the world to Orlando each year; in its history, it has crowned such champions as Tiger Woods, Vijay Singh, Payne Stewart and Mark O'Meara.

The Kodak Challenge – Opportunities for Players to Win

All year long PGA Tour players have had the opportunity to compete to win the Kodak Challenge. Kodak selected 30 holes from different PGA Tour Golf Courses. The 17th hole at Disney's Magnolia Golf Course is the 30th and final hole to be played in the Challenge.

To be eligible to win, a player has had to play at least 18 of the 30 holes. The player with the lowest cumulative score in relation to par will win. The winner of the Kodak Challenge will be awarded $1 million.
