Australian PGA Seniors Championship

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Australian PGA Seniors Championship is a golf tournament in Australia.

History

[edit]

The inaugural event was held in 1986. Legendary golfer Peter Thomson referred to the tournament as "a breakthrough" for Australian senior golf.[1] The 1986 and 1987 events were played concurrently with the Rich River Classic, a regular event on the PGA Tour of Australia. Both were won by the American Orville Moody.[2][3][4] The regular PGA Tour of Australia event, The Rich River Classic, was discontinued in 1988 because of a clash of dates. However, the Rich River Golf Course continued to host the seniors championship until 1995.[5] The 1988 championship was won by Jerry Stolhand.[6] Stolhand, an American who had lived in Australia since 1969, was killed in a car accident in February 1989 and was unable to defend the title.[7][8]

In 1996, star American golfer Lee Trevino played the event.[9] It was the first event he played in Australia in a decade.[10] He played it as a gift to his friend Bruce Devlin who designed Gold Creek Country Club, the course the event was played on.[9] He went on to win.[11]

In recent years the event has been held at Richmond Golf Club. In late 2020 it was announced that the course got a two-year extension to host the tournament through 2022.[12]
