New Zealand PGA Championship

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The New Zealand PGA Championship is a golf tournament on the PGA Tour of Australasia and the Nationwide Tour. It is currently known for sponsorship reasons as the ING New Zealand PGA Championship. It is played annually in February at Clearwater Resort in Christchurch, New Zealand. It is one of three tournaments on the Nationwide Tour held outside the United States (the others are in Panama and Australia). It has been played since 1920, with some gap periods. It was originally a match play event and switched to stroke play in 1965. Major championship winners who have claimed the New Zealand PGA title include Peter Thomson, Kel Nagle and Tony Jacklin.

The 2006 purse was $730,262, with $139,248 going to the winner.
