This event will be contested at The Gallery Golf Club from February 18-23.

The first round will be played Wednesday followed by round two on Thursday, the third round Friday and then both the quarterfinals and semifinals on Saturday. The 36-hole final will be played on Sunday. There is also an 18-hole consolation match to determine third and fourth place on Sunday.

World Golf Championships

The World Golf Championships events feature players from around the world competing against one another in varied formats (match play, stroke and team). The World Golf Championships feature some of the largest purses in professional golf. First prize money is in excess of $1 million.

The World Golf Championships were developed to enhance the competitive structure of professional golf worldwide while preserving the traditions and strengths of the individual tours and their events. The Asian PGA joined the International Federation of PGA Tours as a full-fledged member in November 1999. In March 2000, the Canadian Tour was added as an Associate Member. The World Golf Championships have been conducted on five different continents.

Woods cruises to Match Play victory

Tiger Woods scorched the high desert Sunday, roaring like a wildfire across the Gallery Club at Dove Mountain with a phenomenal display of golf, incinerating Stewart Cink, winning the Accenture Match Play Championship and setting his sights on higher ground.

His 8-and-7 victory over Cink in the final, the largest margin in the history of the event, concluded an astonishing week of match play. Woods won six matches, twice escaped imminent elimination and made 47 birdies and 2 eagles in 117 holes. With his fourth consecutive PGA Tour win and sixth straight worldwide, he rekindled speculation that he could be embarking on a perfect season. More Golf Accenture Results Click Here!
