​At Edgewood Tahoe this week, the athletes and celebrities typically enjoy signing autographs for fans, though their willingness can depend on catching them at the right moment. It often helps if you’re a child in terms of size and age—behavior, of course, should be respectful. The American Century Championship celebrity golf tournament continues through Sunday at Edgewood Tahoe, and here’s a practical guide for pursuing autographs.
Begin by staking out practice areas. The best opportunities to meet celebrities are near the practice putting green and the driving range, where players are more approachable between practice swings and warm-ups. Another smart strategy is to position yourself near key holes, particularly the No. 17 tee box or the No. 18 green. The pace of play at No. 17 tends to slow down the field, giving fans precious minutes to chat with players and request autographs.
Come prepared with a Sharpie or other permanent marker, and keep your autograph requests limited to one or two items per celebrity to avoid overwhelming the players. It’s also important to follow tournament rules. During official competition rounds, most players are not available for autograph sessions while they are on the course. In addition, certain memorabilia items—such as loose jerseys, trading cards, and golf balls—are typically restricted. Fans should generally stick to items included in the official tournament program or a hat when seeking autographs.
If you’re unable to attend Edgewood in person, you still have a good chance to catch the event on television. The 54-hole American Century Championship, featuring numerous celebrities, will be broadcast by NBC Sports across NBC, Peacock, and NBCSN. Schedule highlights include: Friday, July 10, from noon to 3 p.m. on Peacock, NBCSN (live); Saturday, July 11, on NBC and Peacock from 11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. (live); and Sunday, July 12, on NBC from 11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. (live). If you’re curious about the lineup, it’s a star-studded field with famous names such as Curry, Romo, Barkley, and more, among the 90 celebrity participants at Tahoe.
Weather-wise, Edgewood Tahoe is expected to favor mild conditions this weekend, with temperatures in the low 80s for most of the days and a high around 84 on Saturday, cooling slightly to about 78 on Sunday. The forecast calls for no rain through Monday and Tuesday, making outdoor viewing and autograph hunting comfortable for fans. For readers seeking additional context, this event is covered by local outlets such as the Reno Gazette Journal, which also addresses strategies for obtaining autographs at celebrity golf tournaments.
In summary, if you want autographs at Edgewood Tahoe, focus your efforts around practice facilities and key holes, come prepared with a marker and only a couple of items per celebrity, and respect the official rules during competition rounds. If you can’t be there in person, tune in to NBC Sports for comprehensive coverage across NBC, Peacock, and NBCSN to catch all the action and star appearances from Friday through Sunday.
