Theismann Top Domer at Celebrity Golf Tourney

The annual American Century Celebrity Golf Classic -- otherwise known as the "only time you'll see Charles Barkley swing a golf club in public" -- was held this weekend on the shores of Lake Tahoe.

Former Notre Dame All-American QB Joe Theismann (photo above) was the top point scorer in this modified Stableford scoring golf event -- finishing in 30th place. Here's the final scoring among the four former Notre Dame football stars in Tahoe:

  1. Joe Theismann: 27 pts -- 30th place
  2. Tim Brown: 13 pts -- 44th place
  3. Jerome Bettis: 8 pts -- 47th place
  4. Golden Tate: 0 pts -- 53rd place

Here's how the "modified Stableford scoring" system works -- players earn points based on their score each hole.
