Introduc;on of Major Championships
• Men’s Major Championships
• Dis;nct Characteris;cs of Each Major Tournament • “Non-‐Major” Tournaments
• Women’s Major Championships
The Men’s Majors
The men's major golf championships, commonly known as the Major Championships, and o2en referred to simply as the majors, are the four most pres8gious annual tournaments in professional golf. In order of their playing date, the current majors are: • April – Masters Tournament (weekend ending 2nd Sunday in April) – hosted as an
invita8onal by and played at Augusta Na8onal Golf Club in the U.S. state of Georgia. In the United Kingdom and elsewhere, this tournament is o2en disambiguated as "the U.S. Masters Tournament".
• June – U.S. Open (weekend ending with the 3rd Sunday in June) – hosted by the USGA and played at various loca8ons in the United States.
• July – The Open Championship (weekend containing the 3rd Friday in July) – hosted by The R&A, an offshoot of The Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews, and always played on a links course at one of nine various loca8ons in the United Kingdom. In the United States, this tournament is o2en disambiguated as "the Bri8sh Open".
• August – PGA Championship (4th weekend a2er the Open Championship) – hosted by the Professional Golfers' Associa8on of America and played at various loca8ons in the United States.
The Masters Tournament
The Masters Tournament (also referred to as the U.S. Masters outside of the United States) is the only major that is played at the same course every year (Augusta Na8onal Golf Club). The Masters invites the smallest field of the majors, generally under 100 players (although, like all the majors, it now ensures entry for all golfers among the World's top 50 prior to the event), and is the only one of the four majors that does not use "alternates" to replace qualified players who do not enter the event (usually due to injury). Former champions have a life8me invita8on to compete, and also included in the field are the current champions of the major amateur championships, and most of the previous year's PGA Tour winners. The tradi8ons of Augusta, such as the awarding of a green jacket to the champion, create a dis8nc8ve character for the tournament, as does the course itself, with its lack of rough but severely undula8ng fairways and greens, and puni8ve use of ponds and creeks on several key holes on the second nine.
The US Open
The U.S. Open is notorious for being played on difficult courses that have 8ght fairways, challenging greens, demanding pin posi8ons and thick and high rough, placing a great premium on accuracy, especially with driving and approach play. The U.S. Open is rarely won with a score much under par. The event is the championship of the United States Golf Associa8on, and in having a very strict exempt qualifiers list -‐ made up of recent major champions, professionals currently ranked high in the world rankings or on the previous year's money lists around the world, and leading amateurs from recent USGA events -‐ about half of the 156-‐person field s8ll enters the tournament through two rounds of open qualifica8on events, mostly held in the U.S. but also in Europe and Japan. The U.S. Open has no barrier to entry for either women or junior players, as long as they are a professional or meet amateur handicap requirements. The U.S. Open con8nues to have an 18-‐hole playoff if players are 8ed a2er four rounds. (The Open and PGA Championships use four-‐ and three-‐hole aggregate playoffs respec8vely, followed by sudden death if necessary, and most regular events as well as the Masters only have simple sudden death playoffs.)
The Open Championship
The Open Championship (some8mes referred to as the Bri8sh Open outside of the United Kingdom) is organized by The R&A, an offshoot of The Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews, and is typically played on a links-‐style course in Scotland or England. It carries the pres8ge of being the oldest professional golf tournament currently in existence and the original "Open" championship. It is respected for maintaining the tradi8on of links play that dates back to the very inven8on of the game in Scotland. Links courses are generally typified as coastal, flat and o2en very windswept, with the fairways cut through dune grass and gorse bushes that make up the "rough", and have deep bunkers. As well as exemp8ng from qualifying recent professional major and amateur champions and leading players from the world rankings, the R&A ensures that leading golfers from around the globe are given the chance to enter by holding qualifying events on all con8nents.
The PGA Championship
The PGA Championship is tradi8onally played at a parkland club in the United States, and the courses chosen tend to be as difficult as those chosen for the U.S. Open, with several, such as Baltusrol Golf Club, Oakland Hills Country Club, Oak Hill Country Club, and Winged Foot Golf Club, having hosted both. As well as invi8ng recent professional major champions and leading professionals from the world rankings, the PGA Championship field is completed by qualifiers held among members of the PGA of America, the organiza8on of club and teaching professionals that are separate from the members of the PGA Tour. The PGA Championship is also the only one of the four majors to invite all winners of PGA Tour events in the year preceding the tournament. Amateur golfers do not play in PGA, and could only qualify by winning one of the other three majors or having a high world ranking.
“Non-‐Major” Tournaments
Although the majors are considered pres8gious due to their history and tradi8ons, there are s8ll other “non-‐major" tournaments which prominently feature top players compe8ng for purses mee8ng or exceeding those of the four tradi8onal majors, such as the World Golf Championships, the European Tour, DP World Tour Championship Dubai, and The Players Championship, which is organized by the PGA Tour. As The Players has the largest prize fund of any PGA Tour event, and is promoted as the tour's flagship tournament, it is frequently considered to be an unofficial "fi2h major" by players and cri8cs.
The Women’s Majors
Women's golf has a set of major championships which parallels that in men's golf, with the women's system newer and less stable than the men's. As of 2013, five tournaments are designated as majors in women's golf. As of 2013, the order in which women's majors are played:
• Kra\ Nabisco Championship
• LPGA Championship
• U.S. Women's Open
• Women's Bri;sh Open
• The Evian Championship (from 2013 onwards)
Before the Evian Championship became the fi2h LPGA major, the setup of women's majors closely paralleled that of the mainstream (i.e., under-‐50) men's majors. In both cases, the United States hosts three majors and the United Kingdom one. The Evian Championship, as noted above, is held in France. The U.S. and Bri8sh Opens match their male equivalents, and the LPGA Championship is analogous to the PGA Championship, so by default the Kra2 Nabisco Championship is the closest equivalent of The Masters. In any event, the Kra2 Nabisco and Masters share several characteris8cs—both are the first majors of their respec8ve seasons; both are held at the same course every year; and both have a unique tradi8on surrounding the winner, namely the presenta8on of the green jacket at The Masters, and the jump into the 18th-‐hole pond at the Kra2 Nabisco. Unlike the mainstream men's equivalents, with the sole excep8on of the U.S. Women's Open, the women's majors have 8tle sponsors. This is more similar to the setup for the five senior (50 and over) men's majors; two of those events have 8tle sponsors, and two others have presen8ng sponsors whose names appear a2er the tournament 8tle.Similarly differing to the mainstream men's majors, none of which falls under the direct jurisdic8on of any professional golf tour, the LPGA organizes two of its majors, namely the Kra2 Nabisco and LPGA Championship. The U.S. Women's Open, like its men's counterpart, is operated by the United States Golf Associa8on. The Women's Bri8sh Open is operated by the Ladies' Golf Union, the governing body for women's golf in the United Kingdom and Ireland. The Evian Championship is operated by the LET. Again, this setup more closely mirrors that of the senior majors; the Champions Tour directly operates two of its majors.
From 2006 through 2008, the winners of the four women‘s majors received automa8c entry to the LPGA’s season championship, the LPGA Tour Championship. Beginning in 2009, the Tour Championship extended entry to all players in the top 120 on the official LPGA Money List. Star8ng in 2011, the Tour Championship was replaced by the CME Group Titleholders; the top three finishers at all official tour events, including the majors, who have not already qualified for the Titleholders will earn entries. The PGA Tour‘s season-‐ending FedEx Cup playoffs are a series of four events; while major winners are technically not guaranteed entry into even the first playoff event, the FedEx Cup point alloca8ons for major winners are sufficiently high that the winner of one major is essen8ally assured of making the top 125 in points and qualifying for the FedEx Cup playoffs. The Champions Tour has no season-‐ending championship as such; although its final event, the Charles Schwab Cup Championship, is a limited-‐field event analogous to the PGA Tour’s Tour Championship, it does not directly determine the championship of the season or even the Charles Schwab Cup points race.
