The
The challenge event was done in one day, over 18 holes, and is usually held on a Tuesday. It was preceded by an amateur tournament and a one-day pro-am tournament. The event was handicapped to provide all competitors a fair and equal chance of succeeding. The PGA Tour players played the course at its full length, while the Champions Tour players hit from tee positions that made the course shorter and the LPGA players from even shorter tee positions.
The event supports the [[Dave Thomas (American businessman)|Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption]], a [[charitable organization|charity]] established by the founder of [[Wendy's]], the [[fast food restaurant]] that sponsors the tournament. In 2013 the tournament raised a record $4.1 million, and, since it was founded in 1992, it has raised more than $50 million overall for the charity.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.lpga.com/golf/blogs/2013/11/wendy-3-tour-challenge.aspx |title=Team LPGA wins the Wendy's 3-Tour Challenge |publisher=LPGA |date=November 2013 |accessdate=November 13, 2013}}</ref>▼
