PGA Championship

[GPK]

Scuds, the 20 PGA Club Pros that are playing this week get there from a couple different qualifying levels. Again, they are not all teaching pros.

There are 41 PGA sections in the U.S. Every summer, each section has it's own C.P.C. (Club Pro Championship). Each section sends a certain number of qualifiers to the National C.P.C., based on the number of players. The section I am in, Middle Atlantic Section is having our C.P.C. in just a couple weeks in Williamsburg, VA. The top 11 finishers from our section will then advance to the National CPC in Santa Ana Pueblo, New Mexico at the end of June next year. The top 20 finishers in New Mexico will then play in the 2009 PGA Championship at Hazletine in Minn.
