Trevor Lawrence’s Golf Debut at American Century

First Round Highlights

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence opened the American Century Championship with an 86 on July 10. He recorded two birdies and three pars at Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course in Stateline, Nevada, earning a plus‑2 score in the Stableford format. Lawrence, who finished tied for 41st, returns after a tied‑77th placement in 2025. His performance placed him among the early leaders in the celebrity field.

NFL Quarterback Trio Results

The event featured a notable all‑NFL quarterback group. Drew Brees, the former New Orleans Saints signal‑caller, posted a 78 and amassed 14 points, securing a tie for 10th place on his first appearance since 2007. Meanwhile, Tampa Bay Buccaneers starter Baker Mayfield struggled, shooting a 96 and finishing with minus‑17 points, tying for 85th in the 90‑player field. The contrast in form among the pros highlights the competitive depth of the tournament.

Other Standouts

Former Major League Baseball star Vince Coleman delivered a solid round for Northeast Florida fans. The Raines High graduate carded a 76, collected +15 points and tied for eighth overall. Coleman’s day included a single birdie, 12 pars and five bogeys, showcasing his adaptability from baseball diamonds to golf courses.

What This Means for the Rest of the Field

Lawrence’s modest score suggests he will need further improvement to challenge the top qualifiers in subsequent rounds. The wide scoring spread among the quarterbacks indicates the tournament’s competitive depth. Observers will watch whether Brees can repeat his strong showing, while Coleman’s consistency may keep him in contention for a higher spot. The American Century Championship continues with more celebrity golfers teeing off later in the week.
