Utah Jazz guards Deron Williams and Kyle Korver will both participate in next week's Sorenson Champions Challenge at Thanksgiving Point Golf Club.

Johnny Miller's annual tournament features top golfers such as Mike Weir, Hale Irwin, Craig Stadler and Rocco Mediate in a two-person scramble Tuesday after a pro-am the day before.

Both Williams and Korver will play in the Monday pro-am and on Tuesday they will play with local golf professionals Boyd Summerhays and Steele DeWald in a non-competing special celebrity pairing.

Williams made an appearance in last year's Champions Challenge, while Korver played in both the Utah State Amateur and Utah Open earlier this year.

Among the others playing in this year's tournament are LPGA professional and model Anna Rawson, former British Open champion Ian Baker-Finch, Dean Wilson, Dave Stockton Jr., Billy and Bobby Casper.

Tickets can be purchased at Thanksgiving Point, at www.championschallengegolf.com or at the gate the day of the tournament.
