The PGA Grand Slam of Golf, the season-ending showcase of golf's major champions, will return to Poipu Bay Golf Course and Hyatt Regency Kauai Resort & Spa, this year and in 2004.
The 2003 event will be contested Dec. 4-6. The event was originally scheduled Dec. 15-17.
In 2003, Poipu Bay Golf Course and the Hyatt Regency Kauai Resort & Spa will mark the 10th consecutive year that they will have hosted the winners of the Masters, U.S. Open, British Open and PGA Championship. The two-day, 36-hole event features a $1 million purse.
Last year's PGA Grand Slam of Golf saw Tiger Woods capture the annual showdown of major champions for a fifth straight time with a tournament- and course-record of 11-under-par 61. He finished with a record 17-under-par 127 to win by 14 strokes over Justin Leonard and David Love III. PGA Champion Rich Been finished fourth.
The PGA Grand Slam of Golf - which has the most difficult qualification in the game - is televised to some 86.7 million U.S. homes by TNT Network, and to more than 100 countries worldwide.
