In the U.S., The Challenge: Japan Skins will be simulcast on Golf Channel. Eurosport and Nine Australia will also show the first two hours of the broadcast. Event Timing (by country) Japan: October 21st, 13:00 JST Europe: October 21st, 06:00 CEST USA (simulcast on Golf Channel): October 21st, 00:00 EDT Skins Format A “skins” game pitches players in the same group against each other individually over 18 holes. Each hole carries a monetary value, also called a “skin,” of escalating value. The player in the group with the lowest score on the hole wins the skin for that hole; if two or more players tie for the lowest score, the skin carries over to the next hole. The skins continue to carry over until one player wins a hole outright, which may (and often does) result in a player receiving the money for one or more previous holes that they had not tied for. If no player wins the 18th hole outright, a sudden-death playoff for the value of the final skin will ensue (but the value will not multiply with each playoff hole). The winner of The Challenge: Japan Skins is the player who takes home the most money. The skins format was originally made famous through “The Skins Game,” an unofficial money event on the PGA TOUR that launched in 1983. The first Skins Game featured Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, Gary Player and Tom Watson. The latest edition was played in 2008. 1 Challenge Holes During the event, a number of the holes played will include extra challenges with additional monetary value that support our charity partners and add unconventional twists to the event. Details of these extra challenges will be revealed during the live broadcast. Spectator Gallery Approximately 3,000 guests will be invited to watch the event at the course. Spectators will be a mix of GOLFTV competition winners, registered users and event partners. A limited number of tickets to the event are set to be made available for sale to the public. Further details to be announced in due course. Event Purse The Challenge: Japan Skins players will be competing for a total purse of $350,000, with hole values divided as follows: Holes 1 through 6: $10,000 per skin Holes 7 through 12: $15,000 per skin Holes 13 through 17: $20,000 per skin Hole 18: $100,000 super skin The Challenge Charity Partners The Challenge is proud to be supporting a number of charities. More details on these charities will be announced separately.

Interview Transcript: Tom Watson

INTERVIEW TRANSCRIPT: TOM WATSON Wednesday, June 22, 2011 MODERATOR: I'd like to welcome Tom Watson to the Dick's Sporting Goods Open, his first visit back to En-Joie since 1976. Tom, coming off of a big win about a month ago at the Senior PGA Championship, maybe just get us started, talk about that, and then where your game is right now. TOM WATSON: Well, thanks. My game is actually in pretty good shape right now. I played in a tournament that I started in Kansas City five years ago called the Watson Challenge, trying to determine the best player we can in the city. It's only for the Kansas City golfers, the amateurs and the pros. We had the tournament there and I ended up winning that tournament and still kept the challenge alive. Why can't anybody beat a 61-year old, broken-down pro? I actually played pretty well, drove the ball well there, that's -- I'm playing pretty well right now. On this golf course, you have to drive the ball well, and if you don't drive the ball well, you're going to get into the rough and you're going to be -- make a lot of bogeys on this kind of course. It's in excellent shape. I'm probably at somewhat of a disadvantage because I haven't played this course, I don't remember it, since 1976 and a lot of the players who have played it the last four years on our Tour, so I hope to get to know it a little bit better and I have a chance at the end of Sunday to have a chance to win.

any years in the planning and thou- sands of unforgettable experiences in the making, the CDGA’s Three- Hole Sunshine Course and MI*Mag*Jen Clubhouse were formally dedicated Sunday, June 6, under bright blue skies and an appropriately blazing sun. The dedication ceremonies featured a major announcement underscoring how significant the Sunshine Course and the Sunshine Through Golf program are to the Foundation’s ambitions. On June 6, the Foundation’s name officially changed to the Sunshine Through Golf Foundation. CDGA president Robert Berry unveiled the Foundation’s new logo: a smiling golf ball reflecting sun rays.

PRE-ROUND PRESS CONFERENCE 21 October 2019

PRE-ROUND PRESS CONFERENCE 21 October 2019 TIGER WOODS CHUAH CHOO CHIANG: Good morning. We would like to welcome with us on stage 81-time PGA TOUR winner, Tiger Woods. Tiger, welcome to the inaugural ZOZO CHAMPIONSHIP. Your first time back to Japan since 2006. Please share opening comments about being here for the PGA TOUR's first official tournament. TIGER WOODS: Yeah, I haven't played here in a very long time, a place that I've thoroughly enjoyed over the years. First came here in '96 or '97 and had a chance to play with Jumbo and been coming here ever since. To be back here playing a tournament, it's going to be a lot of fun to be back here in front of fans that really understand and respect the game of golf. The game of golf is so strong here in Japan, and to have seen it grow like it has over 20-some odd years that I've been playing is very special and to be a part of it is even more special. Q. How's your knee and the stages that you went through to get your knee back to assuming 100 percent? TIGER WOODS: Yeah, I had it scoped, some cartilage issues. I was intending to actually get it done last year after the Hero World Challenge. Because I had played well in the Playoffs and I won the TOUR Championship, I figured I would keep rolling with it, and I wanted to play at Torrey at the beginning of the year.
