--- title: Golf Makes the World Go Round description: It’s not the World Series or the World Cup—but the Hero Worlds Challenge Tournament from December 3-7 at Isleworth Golf and Country Club in Orlando, Florida. And while a ball from Lost Golf Balls can’t quite take you from zero to hero, it sure can make a world of difference. image: https://blog.lostgolfballs.com/hs-fs/hub/313908/file-2144375574.png --- 866.639.4819 -

No, we’re not talking about the latest big-screen adaptation of a comic book. The [Hero World Challenge Tournament](http://www.tigerwoodsfoundation.org/events/worldChallenge/index) will be held from December 3-7 at the [Isleworth Golf and Country Club](http://isleworth.com/) in Orlando, Florida.    But what *is* the name of the game? Previously known as the Chevron World Challenge, Williams World Challenge, and Target World Challenge, the stroke-play tournament now called the Hero World Challenge will take place on a par-72 course. This year’s title sponsor is [Hero Motocorp](http://www.heromotocorp.com/en-in/)—the second biggest two-wheel company in the world. It’s also the title sponsor for the PGA Tour, the biggest sports sponsorship for an Indian brand.  ![TW_MrMunjal_i1vqf7wp_a6uc6kkf](https://blog.lostgolfballs.com/hs-fs/hub/313908/file-2145759845.jpg?width=409&name=file-2145759845.jpg)   The winner of the tournament will have to overcome some steep challenges. Designed by [Arnold Palmer](http://www.arnoldpalmer.com/), it is considered the toughest *and* longest course in the state by the [Florida Golf Association](http://www.fsga.org/) (“challenge” *is* in the name of the game after all). Not only is it the tournament’s first time in Orlando, but for the first time the public doesn’t have to feel worlds apart from all the action—this year, the event is open to everyone.     While players will compete for a $3.5 million purse and the title of “champion,” it’s the tournament’s charitable roots that make the competitors true heroes. The event is an essential part of the [Tiger Woods Foundation](http://web.tigerwoodsfoundation.org/index) and is hosted by Tiger Woods himself. Since 1999, his foundation has raised $25 million to provide opportunities for higher education to low-income students. Woods has also been known to donate his winnings. Eighteen seems to be the magic number. Like the number of holes on a typical golf course, eighteen of the world’s best [PGA Tour](http://www.pgatour.com/) players will be participating: the current four major winners, the top eleven in the [Official World Golf Ranking](http://www.owgr.com/), the defending champion, and two special-exemption players. This year’s star players include Matt Kuchar, Rickie Fowler, Zach Johnson, Graeme McDowell, Bubba Watson, Jason Day, Jim Furyk, Henrik Stenson, and Justin Rose. Last year’s champion was eleven-time PGA Tour winner [Zach Johnson](http://zachjohnsongolf.com/ContentPages/Home.aspx), who had an amazing comeback on the![zach-johnson-beat-tiger-woods-by-sinking-a-shot-from-the-fairway-on-the-18th-hole](https://blog.lostgolfballs.com/hs-fs/hub/313908/file-2141197868.jpg?width=254&name=file-2141197868.jpg) back nine to tie Tiger Woods by [holing out](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v8W3-sF2Oa0)—on which hole? You guessed it: 18. He also won the first playoff hole against Woods. However, Henrik Stenson, Jim Furyk, and Justin Rose are currently on top of the world when it comes to the Official World Golf Ranking for players in this tournament.   ![logo_hero_worldchallenge](https://blog.lostgolfballs.com/hs-fs/hub/313908/file-2144375574.png)   In the world of golf, who’s your hero?

But I’m not a big fan of what we’ve heard so far with the sole exception being turning the Tour Championship into match play. Essentially, beginning in 2028, the schedule will feature a Championship Series with the biggest names playing for purses over $20 million. There will be the Championship Challenger Series with $4 million purses. - [Perry Lefko](https://blog.lostgolfballs.com/author/perry-lefko) - 9 min read - 01 Jul,2026 ## [1 Billion and Counting: PG Golf and LostGolfBalls.com Hit Historic Milestone](https://blog.lostgolfballs.com/1-billion-and-counting-pg-golf-and-lostgolfballs.com-hit-historic-milestone) A milestone that underscores decades of innovation, sustainability, and trust among 1+ million golfers nationwide.

Heading into Canadian Open, I picked Clark and Burns as my two choices in the PG Golf pool. It was the second time using both in the pool, and you are only allowed to pick a player twice. I loved Clark’s form – he had won the CJ Cup Byron Nelson and tied for third in the Memorial Tournament. - [Perry Lefko](https://blog.lostgolfballs.com/author/perry-lefko) - 9 min read - 24 Jun,2026 ### Subscribe to Email Updates [![](https://cdn2.hubspot.net/hubfs/3842749/Logo/Growth_-logo.svg)](https://palmspire-3842749.hs-sites.com/growth-home-1) We help companies and marketers save time and generate more leads via drag and drop HubSpot COS conversion focussed templates. ##### Features ##### About Us ##### Company © Copyright 2017-18 SIGN UP FOR OUR NEWSLETTER - - - - - About Us - [LGB Story](https://www.lostgolfballs.com/aboutus) - [Press Room](https://www.lostgolfballs.com/pressroom) - [Why Used](https://www.lostgolfballs.com/whyused) Support - [Contact Us](https://www.lostgolfballs.com/contacts) - [Shipping Policy](https://www.lostgolfballs.com/shipping) - [Return Policy](https://www.lostgolfballs.com/returns) - [FAQs](https://www.lostgolfballs.com/faqs) Explore - [Best Ball For You](https://info.lostgolfballs.com/whats-the-best-ball-for-you) - [Blog](https://blog.lostgolfballs.com/) - [Golf Tips](https://www.lostgolfballs.com/golftips) - [Grading Scale](https://www.lostgolfballs.com/gradingscale) Wholesale - [Selling Golf Balls](https://www.lostgolfballs.com/We-Buy) - [Bulk Orders](https://info.lostgolfballs.com/wholesale-golf-balls-lostgolfballs) - [School Orders](https://info.lostgolfballs.com/school-orders) Browse - [ProV1/ProV1x](https://www.lostgolfballs.com/golf-balls/brands/pro-v1.html) - [Titleist](https://www.lostgolfballs.com/golf-balls/brands/titleist.html) - [Bridgestone](https://www.lostgolfballs.com/golf-balls/brands/bridgestone.html) - [Callaway](https://www.lostgolfballs.com/golf-balls/brands/callaway.html) - [Nike](https://www.lostgolfballs.com/golf-balls/brands/nike.html) - [Srixon](https://www.lostgolfballs.com/golf-balls/brands/srixon.html) - [Taylormade](https://www.lostgolfballs.com/golf-balls/brands/taylormade.html) - [Refinished](https://www.lostgolfballs.com/golf-balls/quality/refinished.html) - [Deals](https://www.lostgolfballs.com/deals.html) - [Accessories](https://www.lostgolfballs.com/golf-accessories.html) Copyright © 2020 www.Lostgolfballs.com • All Rights Reserved. - [Terms And Conditions](https://blog.lostgolfballs.com/termsandconditions) - [Privacy Policy](https://blog.lostgolfballs.com/privacy-policy) - [Ad And Cookie Policy](https://blog.lostgolfballs.com/ad-and-cookie-policy) - [Sitemap](https://blog.lostgolfballs.com/catalog/seo_sitemap/category) California: - [Your Privacy Rights](https://blog.lostgolfballs.com/privacy-policy#ccpa) - [Do Not Sell My Info](https://blog.lostgolfballs.com/do-not-sell-my-info) ![](https://googleads.g.doubleclick.net/pagead/viewthroughconversion/1056616003/?value=0&guid=ON&script=0)
