PNC Championship returns this weekend, with pairs including Tiger and Charlie Woods: How to watch

Golf stars and their family members will compete against each other at this weekend's PNC Championship.

The tournament which debuted in 1995 as the Father/Son Challenge will see 18 returning players from last year and two new ones. Twenty teams will play in the 36-hole scramble where the winner will earn the Willie Park Trophy, named after British Open champions, Willie Park Sr. and Willie Park Jr.

The championship consists of two-player teams made up of a PGA Tour, Champions Tour or LPGA Tour player and a family member of theirs who isn't a current touring professional.

Vijay Singh and Qass Singh, who took home the trophy after a two-shot win, are set to return. Gary Player and his son Jordan as well as Jordan Spieth and his father Shawn will not be returning this year. Instead the two pairs will be replaced by Retief Goosen and his son, Leo, as well as Steve Stricker and his daughter, Izzi.

Bernhard Langer, who has won the event four times, could tie five-time winner Raymond Floyd with another win.

Tiger Woods made his comeback last month following seven months off the course due to an injury by reaggravating his plantar fasciitis. The 15-time major champion played at the Hero World Challenge, the tournament he hosts, which occurred from Nov. 30 to Dec. 3.

"I hit a lot of shots," Woods said during the tournament. "I was rusty, I didn’t have my feels, conditions were tough early. I kind of hung through there and didn’t finish off my round the way I needed to and consequently, it kind of went sideways at the end."
