Wachovia Championship

Born in 2003, the Wachovia Championship is a relatively new tournament. It is held at the Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, North Carolina in May every year. In the first three years, the tournament has raised $4.2 million for charity, thereby being recognized as one of the top events on the PGA Tour.

David Toms won the inaugural event in 2003. Joey Sindelar and Vijay Singh won here in the following years. Jim Furyk is the defending champion having won the 2006 Wachovia Championship . The Championship offers $6,300,000 in prize money with the winner getting $1,134,000.
