CHARLOTTE, North Carolina (Reuters) - A much anticipated shift of the major golf calendar that would move the PGA Championship from its August slot to May is a done deal according to media reports but PGA officials were staying mum on the subject on Monday.

"We have no comment on that," a PGA of America spokesman told Reuters at Quail Hollow, site of the PGA Championship starting on Thursday. "We won't have anything to say on that before our news conference on Tuesday."
