Senior PGA Championship Information
"The oldest major championship in professional senior golf, the PGA Seniors' Championship was born in 1937 on the grounds of one of golf's major championships, at the invitation of one of the game's greatest players. At the suggestion of renowned amateur golfer Bobby Jones Jr., the inaugural PGA Seniors' Championship was played at Augusta National Golf Club three years after the first Masters Tournament was held. It was established in the fall of 1937 to provide an opportunity for PGA members over the age of 50 to compete with their peers. The purse was $2,000. In an effort to find better weather conditions, the PGA Seniors' Championship moved to Florida in 1940, spending two years in Sarasota and one year in Fort Myers, before being suspended for two years due to World War II. Florida has been the site for the PGA Seniors' Championship since the event first moved to the Sunshine State in 1940. Since 1982, the PGA Seniors' Championship has been held at PGA National Golf Club in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla., home of The PGA of America's national office." |
