The World Golf Championships
The World Golf Championships, or WGC, is a series of high-profile tournaments with international fields, considered below the level of the major championships in importance but equal to or slightly above the level of top PGA Tour events in importance.
The World Golf Championships series tournaments were first played in 1999, and the WGC series at that time consisted of three tournaments, the Accenture Match Play Championship, the Bridgestone Invitational and CA Championship.
A fourth WGC tournament was added the following year, but in 2008 the WGC returned to a three-tournament schedule.
These PGA sanctioned events make it possible to have a truly global ranking system and a worldwide overall champion. You simply can't beat beat the World Golf Championships for international golf.
The World Golf Championships were developed to enhance the competitive structure of professional golf worldwide while preserving the traditions and strengths of the individual Tours and their events. The member Tours are the Asian Tour, European Tour, Japan Golf Tour, PGA TOUR, PGA Tour of Australasia and Southern Africa Tour.
The Canadian Tour is named an Associate Member of the Federation.
The World Golf Championships events feature players from around the world competing against one another in varied formats (match play, stroke and team). A common qualification standard for the series is top players from the Official World Golf Ranking, which ensures a strong field. The World Golf Championships have been conducted on five different continents.
The World Golf Championships feature some of the largest purses in professional golf. First prize money is in excess of $1 million.
