THE decision to move the PGA Championship to the middle of May has altered the schedule of the Major championship events. But by no means has it diluted the hype with which golf’s four biggest and best tournaments are viewed.
From its perennial slot in August, the PGA Championship will be held from May 16 to 19 at Bethpage State Park course in New York. It will be played after the US Masters, scheduled for April 11 to 14 at Augusta National Golf Club in Atlanta, while the US Open is set for June 13 to 16 at Pebble Beach Golf Links in California.
