PGA of Australia |
PGA of Australia aims to promote the game of golf locally and internationally.
Few sporting organisations boast a proud 100-year plus heritage like the Professional Golfers Association of Australia.
The PGA of Australia is the third oldest Professional Golfers Association in the world and traces its origin back to 1911 when a group of expatriate Scottish golf Professionals formed a national Association to promote the game of golf and elevate the vocation of the golf Professional within Australia.
The PGA of Australia is a not-for-profit Member-based organisation representing both Tournament Professionals and the Club Professionals who form the cornerstone of the industry, working in golf facilities throughout Australia and overseas. Our PGA Members play an integral role in servicing more than 1.2 million Australians who hit the fairways each year.
The PGA of Australia also owns and manages the ISPS HANDA PGA Tour of Australasia which is a member of the International Federation of PGA Tours. The Australian PGA Championship, Emirates Australian Open and New Zealand Open are just a few of our sanctioned tournaments that carry World Ranking Points.
As the official sanctioning body for all elite male professional tournament golf in Australasia, the PGA of Australia has a successful history in producing numerous Major winners and world ranked players, including Kel Nagle, Peter Thomson, Jack Newton, Greg Norman, Geoff Ogilvy, Adam Scott, Jason Day and Cameron Smith.
To ensure the Australian golf industry maintains its position as one of the best in the world, the PGA of Australia provides industry specific training and education opportunities for those seeking to start, advance or consolidate their career in the golf industry.
The Victorian PGA Championship is one of the longest running professional golf events on the Victorian calendar and forms part of the PGA Tour of Australasia.
