The KitchenAid Senior PGA Championship, the second of five major championships on the PGA TOUR Champions schedule in 2022 is set to take place May 26-29 Harbor Shoes Resort in Benton Harbor, Michigan.
The event comes on the heels of the year’s first PGA TOUR Champions major, the Regions Tradition where Steve Stricker cruised to a six-stroke victory.
Mike Weir looks to build upon his solid final round at the year’s first major, The Regions Traditions where the 52-year-old from Bright’s Grove, Ont., shot 67.
At last year’s event (which was played at Southern Hills in Tulsa, Okla.), Weir finished T5, seven-shots back of eventual winner Alex Cejka. In three of the last four s KitchenAid Senior PGA Championships contested at The Golf Club at Harbor Shores, a player from the United Kingdom has reigned victorious. Weir will be joined by fellow Canadians Stephen Ames and David Morland IV in the field.
The Venue
For the fifth time in the past 10-years, The Golf Club at Harbor Shores Resort plays host to the KitchenAid Senior PGA Championship.
Located on the shores of Lake Michigan, this Jack Nicklaus-designed track is part of the 500-acre Harbor Shores development that features restaurants and a hotel. The course itself—at nearly 7,000 yards and a par-71—is quintessential Michigan golf playing along coastal dunes of Lake Michigan and inland amongst woodlands, ravines, wetlands and rolling hills. What’s more impressive is the site on which the course is built was once home a landfill full of automobile parts and chemicals.
