Club: Walt Disney World Resort (Magnolia GC, Palm Course)

Location: Lake Buena Vista, Florida

Date: November 5-11, 2012

PGA Tour Golf Betting Odds: The 2012 Golf season comes to an end every year in Orlando at the Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals Classic. This is the last event of the Fall Classic and last full-field event of the year. Although most of the top-ranked players are done for the year, there is a lot at stake at this year’s tournament in Orlando. Players will be fighting to keep their Tour card and finish in the top 125 on the money-list in order to be exempt for 2012.

The tournament is played over three different courses the first three days; Magnolia Course, Palm Course, and Lake Buena Vista are the three courses the pros will play. The Magnolia course is the longest of the three and will also be used for the final day on Sunday. The professionals will play with amateurs the first three days, kind of like a pro-am format. The cut will be made after 54 holes, leaving 65 or so for the weekend.

Since this is the last tournament on the PGA Tour schedule, this is the last chance the players have to secure a tour card for next year. Only those who finish in the top 125 on the money-list are guaranteed full status for 2013. Players will also be fighting to climb into the top 150 as well – players that do finished between 126-150 on the money-list will have some status next year and will probably get to play in around 12-15 tournaments in 2013.

There is a lot going on November – The Children’s Miracle Network Classic is where the pros will be scrambling to hold on to their jobs for next year. It will be interesting to see how it unfolds and which players choke and which players make a move.

2011 Children's Miracle Network Hospitals Classic Winner - Donald seals PGA money list triumph

World number one Luke Donald overhauled American Webb Simpson to finish top of the PGA Tour money list after clinching the Children's Miracle Network Hospitals Classic Sunday.

A stunning final round 64, including six consecutive birdies on the back nine, was enough for Donald, 33, to finish 17-under-par for the tournament, two-shots clear of Justin Leonard in second.

It was the Englishman's second win of the season on the PGA Tour and his 14th top-10 finish.

Donald, who has two wins on the European Tour, is bidding to become the first golfer to finish top of both the European and PGA Tour money lists in the same season.

Donald faced a nervous wait to see whether overnight co-leader Leonard could usurp him at the top of the leader board, but when the American found a bunker on the final hole his victory was confirmed.

Simpson, who held a $363,029 lead over Donald heading into the Walt Disney World Resort tournament, finish four shots adrift of Donald in a five-way tie for sixth position.

Robert Garrigus's miracle at 2010 Children's Miracle Network Classic

Robert Garrigus is not a household name. Heck, there was a time he wasn’t even a household name in his own household.

But after what Garrigus has been through this year, he’s the kind of guy who deserves to be not only known in households, but throughout the world of golf. The 33-year-old Nampa, Idaho native, who just turned 33 on the 11th, became famous (or infamous) in  mid-June when he blew what looked like a sure victory in the St. Jude Classic presented by Smith & Nephew with a monumental collapse on the 72nd hole.

Garrigus’ victory in the Children’s Miracle Network Classic Sunday insured he’ll be back out on the PGA Tour for two years and, in his mind, has closed the book on the Memphis debacle. That closing had a nice twist to it with Garrigus came storming back from five shots back to win and shooting a 64.
