Players can compete from one of four sets of tees, are free to use a motorised cart or walk to go around the course, and have stroke indices that range from the low-20s to much better than scratch. All of this is without mentioning the field, which is unquestionably the most distinctive in golf history.

All players on the field are specially abled in their unique way and a very personal backstory. Moreover, the lowest-scoring player on both the men’s and women’s sides will receive one of two trophies at the conclusion of 54 holes of play.

With the tournament currently taking place at the Pinehurst Resort in North Carolina, will you be watching the event closely just like Tiger Woods?
