With the introduction of the Masters Tournament in 1934, and the rise of professional golf in the late 1940s and 1950s, the term "major championships" eventually came to describe the <a href="/wiki/Masters_Tournament" title="Masters Tournament">Masters</a>, the U.S. Open, the Open Championship, and the <a href="/wiki/PGA_Championship" title="PGA Championship">PGA Championship</a>. It is difficult to determine when the definition changed to include the current four tournaments, although many trace it to Arnold Palmer's 1960 season. After winning the Masters and the U.S. Open to start the season, he remarked that if he could win the Open Championship and PGA Championship to finish the season, he would complete "a grand slam of his own" to rival <a href="/wiki/Bobby_Jones_(golfer)" title="Bobby Jones (golfer)">Bobby Jones</a>'s 1930 feat. Until that time, many U.S. players such as Byron Nelson also considered the <a href="/wiki/Western_Open" title="Western Open">Western Open</a> and the <a href="/wiki/North_and_South_Open" title="North and South Open">North and South Open</a> as two of golf's "majors",<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and the <a href="/wiki/British_PGA_Matchplay_Championship" title="British PGA Matchplay Championship">British PGA Matchplay Championship</a> was as important to British and Commonwealth professionals as the PGA Championship was to Americans. </p><p>During the 1950s, the short-lived <a href="/wiki/World_Championship_of_Golf" title="World Championship of Golf">World Championship of Golf</a> was viewed as a "major" by its competitors, as its first prize was worth almost ten times any other event in the game, and it was the first event whose finale was televised live on U.S. television. The oldest of the majors is The Open Championship, commonly referred to as the "British Open" outside the United Kingdom. Dominated by American champions in the 1920s and 1930s, the comparative explosion in the riches available on the U.S. Tour from the 1940s onwards meant that the lengthy overseas trip needed to qualify and compete in the event became increasingly prohibitive for the leading American professionals. Their regular participation dwindled after the war years. <a href="/wiki/Ben_Hogan" title="Ben Hogan">Ben Hogan</a> entered just once in <a href="/wiki/1953_Open_Championship" title="1953 Open Championship">1953</a> and won, but never returned. <a href="/wiki/Sam_Snead" title="Sam Snead">Sam Snead</a> won in <a href="/wiki/1946_Open_Championship" title="1946 Open Championship">1946</a> but lost money on the trip (first prize was $600) and did not return until <a href="/wiki/1962_Open_Championship" title="1962 Open Championship">1962</a>. </p><p>Golf writer <a href="/wiki/Dan_Jenkins" title="Dan Jenkins">Dan Jenkins</a>, who was often seen as the world authority on majors since he had attended more (200+) than anyone else, once noted that "the pros didn't talk much about majors back then.

Scheduling difficulties persisted with the PGA Championship, but more Americans began competing in the 1960s, restoring the event's prestige (and with it the prize money that once made it an attractive prospect to other American pros). The advent of transatlantic jet travel helped to boost American participation in The Open. A discussion between Palmer and <a href="/wiki/Pittsburgh" title="Pittsburgh">Pittsburgh</a> golf writer Bob Drum led to the concept of the modern <a href="/wiki/Grand_Slam_(golf)" title="Grand Slam (golf)">Grand Slam of Golf</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-slam_9-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-slam-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In August 2017, after the previous year's edition was scheduled earlier due to <a href="/wiki/Golf_at_the_2016_Summer_Olympics" title="Golf at the 2016 Summer Olympics">golf at the 2016 Summer Olympics</a>, the PGA of America announced that the PGA Championship would be moved to late-May beginning in 2019, in between the Masters and U.S. Open.

Elite players from all over the world participate in them, and the reputations of the greatest players in golf history are largely based on the number and variety of major championship victories they accumulate. Winning a major boosts a player's career far more than winning any other tournament. If he is already a leading player, he will probably receive large bonuses from his sponsors and may be able to negotiate better contracts. If he is an unknown, he will immediately be signed up. Perhaps more importantly, he will receive an exemption from the need to annually re-qualify for a tour card on his home tour, thus giving a tournament golfer some security in an unstable profession. He also is automatically invited to every other major championship for the next five years, and receives an exemption into the major he just won as well; depending on the major won, he can receive at minimum a 10-year exemption, and at maximum a lifetime exemption into the major.<sup id="cite_ref-12" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Currently, both the <a href="/wiki/PGA_Tour" title="PGA Tour">PGA Tour</a> and <a href="/wiki/PGA_European_Tour" title="PGA European Tour">European Tour</a> give a five-year exemption to all major winners and they receive the highest priority in those rankings. </p><p>Independent organizations, and not the PGA Tour, operate each of the majors.

Each of the majors has a distinct history, and they are run by four separate golf organizations, but their special status is recognized worldwide.

The Players Championship historically has offered a prize pool as large as or larger than the majors, because the PGA Tour wants its most important event to be as attractive. <sup id="cite_ref-ap20200125_13-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-ap20200125-13"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Although the majors are considered prestigious due to their history and traditions, besides The Players there are still other non-"major" tournaments which prominently feature top players competing for purses meeting or exceeding those of the four traditional majors, such as the <a href="/wiki/European_Tour" class="mw-redirect" title="European Tour">European Tour</a>'s <a href="/wiki/DP_World_Tour_Championship,_Dubai" class="mw-redirect" title="DP World Tour Championship, Dubai">DP World Tour Championship, Dubai</a>,<sup id="cite_ref-ap20200125_13-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-ap20200125-13"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and <a href="/wiki/World_Golf_Championships" title="World Golf Championships">World Golf Championships</a>.

The Masters invites the smallest field of the majors, generally under 100 players (although, like all the majors, it now ensures entry for all golfers among the world's top 50 before the event), and is the only one of the four majors that does not use "alternates" to replace qualified players who do not enter the event (usually due to injury). Also, its 36-hole cut is set at roughly the top 50 players and ties—the smallest of any major, though not the smallest when measured by percentage of the original field.<sup id="cite_ref-Friday24US_16-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Friday24US-16"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Former champions have a lifetime invitation to compete, and also included in the field are the current champions of the major amateur championships, and most of the previous year's <a href="/wiki/PGA_Tour" title="PGA Tour">PGA Tour</a> winners (although winners of "alternate" events held opposite a high-profile tournament <i>do not</i> receive automatic invitations). The traditions of Augusta during Tournament week, such as the <a href="/wiki/Masters_Tournament#Champions'_Dinner" title="Masters Tournament">Champion's Dinner</a>, <a href="/wiki/Masters_Tournament_Par-3_contest" class="mw-redirect" title="Masters Tournament Par-3 contest">Par 3 Contest</a>, and awarding of a green jacket to the champion, create a distinctive character for the tournament, as does the course itself, with its lack of primary rough but severely undulating fairways and greens, traditional pin placements, and punitive use of ponds and creeks on several key holes on the back nine.</li> <li>The <a href="/wiki/PGA_Championship" title="PGA Championship">PGA Championship</a> (sometimes referred to as the U.S. PGA), which since 2019 has been the year's second major, is traditionally played at a parkland club in the United States, and the courses chosen tend to be as difficult as those chosen for the U.S. Open, with several, such as <a href="/wiki/Baltusrol_Golf_Club" title="Baltusrol Golf Club">Baltusrol Golf Club</a>, <a href="/wiki/Medinah_Country_Club" title="Medinah Country Club">Medinah Country Club</a>, <a href="/wiki/Oakland_Hills_Country_Club" title="Oakland Hills Country Club">Oakland Hills Country Club</a>, <a href="/wiki/Oak_Hill_Country_Club" title="Oak Hill Country Club">Oak Hill Country Club</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Winged_Foot_Golf_Club" title="Winged Foot Golf Club">Winged Foot Golf Club</a>, having hosted both. The PGA generally does not set up the course to be as difficult as the USGA does. The <a href="/wiki/Professional_Golfers%27_Association_of_America" title="Professional Golfers' Association of America">PGA of America</a> enters into a profit-sharing agreement with the host club. (An exception was in 2014, when the tournament was held at <a href="/wiki/Valhalla_Golf_Club" title="Valhalla Golf Club">Valhalla Golf Club</a> in <a href="/wiki/Louisville,_Kentucky" title="Louisville, Kentucky">Louisville, Kentucky</a>, a club that the PGA of America fully owned at the time.) As with The Masters, previous winners of the PGA Championship have a lifetime invitation to compete. As well as inviting recent champions of the other three professional majors and leading players from the world rankings, the PGA Championship field is completed by qualifiers held among members of the PGA of America, the organization of club and teaching professionals that are separate from the members of the <a href="/wiki/PGA_Tour" title="PGA Tour">PGA Tour</a>. The PGA Championship is also the only one of the four majors to invite all winners of PGA Tour events in the year preceding the tournament, as well as inviting 20 club professionals who are non-tour regulars. Amateur golfers do not normally play on the PGA Tour, and could only qualify by winning one of the other three majors, winning a PGA Tour event while playing under a sponsor's exemption, or having a high world ranking. When the PGA Championship was held in August, it was frequently affected by the high heat and humidity that characterize the summer climate of much of the U.S., which often set it apart as a challenge from (in particular) the Open Championship, an event often played in cooler and rainy weather. With the 2019 move to a May date, heat and humidity are less likely to have major effects on the competition.</li> <li>The third major, the <a href="/wiki/U.S._Open_(golf)" title="U.S. Open (golf)">U.S. Open</a>, is notorious for being played on difficult courses that have tight fairways, challenging greens, demanding pin positions and thick and high rough, placing a great premium on accuracy, especially with driving and approach play. Additionally, while most regular tour events are played on courses with par 72, the U.S. Open has almost never been held on a par-72 course in recent decades; the <a href="/wiki/2017_U.S._Open_(golf)" title="2017 U.S. Open (golf)">2017 event</a> was the first since <a href="/wiki/1992_U.S._Open_(golf)" title="1992 U.S. Open (golf)">1992</a> to be played at par 72.<sup id="cite_ref-17" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-17"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>17<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> During this time, the tournament course has occasionally been played to a par of 71 but most commonly par 70. The U.S. Open is rarely won with a score much under par. The event is the championship of the <a href="/wiki/United_States_Golf_Association" title="United States Golf Association">United States Golf Association</a>, and in having a very strict exempt qualifiers list – made up of recent major champions, professionals currently ranked high in the world rankings or on the previous year's money lists around the world, and leading amateurs from recent USGA events – about half of the 156-person field still enters the tournament through two rounds of open qualification events, mostly held in the U.S. but also in Europe and Japan. The U.S. Open has no barrier to entry for either women or junior players, as long as they are a professional or meet amateur handicap requirements. As of 2024, however, no female golfer has yet qualified for the U.S. Open, although in 2006 <a href="/wiki/Michelle_Wie_West" title="Michelle Wie West">Michelle Wie</a> made it to the second qualifying stage. Finally, the U.S. Open has the strictest 36-hole cut of any major championship (by percentage of the field), with only the top 60 players and ties of the 156-player field playing the final two days.<sup id="cite_ref-Friday24US_16-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Friday24US-16"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> While the U.S. Open employed an 18-hole playoff for many years if players were tied after four rounds, the USGA announced that beginning in 2018 all of its future championships would implement a two-hole aggregate playoff format. A sudden-death playoff would follow if the players were still tied after the two playoff holes.<sup id="cite_ref-18" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-18"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>18<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> (This change also brought the U.S. Open more in line with both the Open and PGA Championships, which use four- and three-hole aggregate playoffs respectively, followed by sudden death if necessary, and most regular events as well as the Masters only have simple sudden-death playoffs.) The Sunday of the Championship has also in recent years fallen on <a href="/wiki/Father%27s_Day_(United_States)" title="Father's Day (United States)">Father's Day</a> (at least as recognized in the US and the UK) which has lent added poignancy to winners' speeches.</li> <li>The year's final major, <a href="/wiki/The_Open_Championship" title="The Open Championship">The Open Championship</a> (sometimes referred to as the British Open), is organized by <a href="/wiki/The_R%26A" title="The R&A">The R&A</a>, an offshoot of <a href="/wiki/The_Royal_and_Ancient_Golf_Club_of_St_Andrews" title="The Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews">The Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews</a>, and is typically played on a <a href="/wiki/Links_(golf)" title="Links (golf)">links-style course</a> in the <a href="/wiki/United_Kingdom" title="United Kingdom">United Kingdom</a> (primarily <a href="/wiki/Scotland" title="Scotland">Scotland</a> or <a href="/wiki/England" title="England">England</a>). It carries the prestige of being the oldest professional golf tournament currently in existence and the original "Open" championship (although the very first event was held only for British professionals). It is respected for maintaining the tradition of links play that dates back to the very invention of the game in Scotland. Links courses are generally typified as coastal, flat and often very windswept, with the fairways cut through dune grass and gorse bushes that make up the "rough", and have deep bunkers. The course is generally not "doctored" to make it more difficult, effectively making the variable weather the main external influence on the field's score.<sup id="cite_ref-19" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-19"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>19<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Also, the greens at Open venues tend to be set up to play more slowly than those of normal tour stops. In windy conditions, a course with fast greens can become unplayable because the wind could affect balls at rest; the third round of the <a href="/wiki/2015_Open_Championship" title="2015 Open Championship">2015 Open</a> saw many delays for this very reason.<sup id="cite_ref-20" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-20"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>20<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> As well as exempting from qualifying recent professional major and amateur champions, all former Open Championship winners under age 60 (with the age cutoff being reduced to 55 for those winning their first Open in 2024 or later), and leading players from the world rankings, the R&A ensures that leading golfers from around the globe are given the chance to enter by holding qualifying events on all continents, as well as holding final qualifying events around the UK in the weeks before the main tournament. The champion receives (and has his name inscribed on the base of) the famous <a href="/wiki/Claret_Jug" title="Claret Jug">Claret Jug</a>, a trophy that dates back to 1872 (champions from 1860 until 1871 received instead a championship belt, much like a champion professional boxer's belt nowadays) and the engraving of the champions' name on the trophy before them receiving it is, in itself, one of the traditions of the closing ceremony of the championship, as is the award of the silver medal to the leading amateur player to have made the cut to play the last 36 holes.</li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Television_coverage">Television coverage</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Men%27s_major_golf_championships&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Television coverage"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="United_Kingdom">United Kingdom</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Men%27s_major_golf_championships&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: United Kingdom"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <table class="wikitable"> <tbody><tr> <th>Event</th> <th>Networks </th></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/Masters_Tournament" title="Masters Tournament">Masters Tournament</a></td> <td rowspan="4"><a href="/wiki/Sky_Sports" title="Sky Sports">Sky Sports</a> </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/PGA_Championship" title="PGA Championship">PGA Championship</a> </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/U.S._Open_(golf)" title="U.S. Open (golf)">U.S. Open</a> </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/The_Open_Championship" title="The Open Championship">The Open Championship</a> </td></tr></tbody></table> <p>In the United Kingdom, historically all four majors were broadcast on free to air TV.

for the leading players from around the world to have the opportunity to compete in all four of the "modern" majors in one season, because of the different qualifying criteria used in each at the time, the costs of traveling to compete (in an era when tournament prize money was very low, and only the champion himself would earn the chance of ongoing endorsements), and on occasion even the conflicting scheduling of the Open and PGA Championships. In 1937, the U.S. Ryder Cup side all competed in <a href="/wiki/The_Open_Championship" title="The Open Championship">The Open Championship</a>, but of those who finished in the top ten of that event, only <a href="/wiki/Ed_Dudley" title="Ed Dudley">Ed Dudley</a> could claim a "top ten" finish in all four of the majors in 1937, if his defeat in the last-16 round of that year's PGA Championship (then at match play) was considered a "joint 9th" position. </p><p>Following 1960, when <a href="/wiki/Arnold_Palmer" title="Arnold Palmer">Arnold Palmer</a>'s narrowly failed bid to add the Open Championship to his Masters and U.S. Open titles (and thus emulate Hogan's 1953 "triple crown") helped to establish the concept of the modern professional "Grand Slam", it has become commonplace for the leading players to be invited to, and indeed compete in, all four majors each year. Even so, those who have recorded top-ten finishes in all four, in a single year, remains a small and select group. </p> <table class="wikitable"> <tbody><tr> <th rowspan="2">Nationality </th> <th
