The Nationwide Children's Hospital Championship is a golf tournament on the Korn Ferry Tour. It was played for the first time in July 2007 at The Ohio State University Golf Club's Scarlet Course in Upper Arlington, Ohio.
The first six years of the event were unique in that it invited the top collegiate golfers to compete. Amateurs won two of the six events.
Since 2013, it has been part of the Korn Ferry Tour Finals and the field consists of the top-132 players from the Korn Ferry Tour points list.
The 2026 purse is $1,000,000, with a $180,000 winner's share.
Since its inception in 2007, the Nationwide Children's Hospital Championship has raised nearly $33 million in support of pediatric cancer treatment and research at Nationwide Children’s Hospital.
