Due do the fact that the PGA Championship is the last major tournament of the season, it has earned the nickname “Glory’s Last Shot”. The tournament is an official event of the PGA Tour, European Tour and the Japan Golf Tour. Similar to other major tournaments, winning the PGA Championship offers more than just a hefty purse. The winner is given an automatic invitation to every major tournament for the next five years. In addition, the winner is also exempt from qualifying for the PGA Championship for life. The first PGA Championship was held in 1916 at the Siwanoy Country Club in Eastchester, New York. The winner, Jim Barnes, received $500.
