It debuted in 2019 at the Four Season Golf & Sports Club Orlando. The tournament field is limited to winners on LPGA Tour events in the previous two years. As is the case in the past, there is also a pro-am and celebrity tournament, like its predecessor. The top amateurs during the midweek pro-am are invited to play in the main tournament. Each professional is paired with two celebrities or amateurs in the groupings, and celebrities change per round. A Stableford-based system is used for the celebrities and amateurs. The celebrity division has been dominated by John Smoltz, who has won two consecutive celebrity division tournaments, his third overall in the event. The event takes place Jan 21-24 and has a prize fund of $1,200,000. American Jessica Korda followed up a Saturday 60 with a final round 66 to win the LPGA Tour’s first event of 2021, Korda defeating Danielle Kang in a sudden death play-off. Jessica Korda and Danielle Kang shattered the Diamond Resorts Tournament of Champions scoring record with a four-day total of 24-under 260, beating the previous mark of 14-under 270 set by Eun Hee Ji in 2019 but victory was decided when Korda sank a 25-foot birdie on the first sudden-death playoff hole. 1083942
