Well, it's tonight in the US.
The course is the RACV Royal Pines Resort on the Gold Coast, a very nice course. The defending champion is Harold Varner III, a North Carolina boy (like me) who made this event his first big professional title last year.
This event was part of the Australian Triple Crown -- the Australian Open, the Australian Masters and the Australian PGA Championship. However, the Australian Masters wasn't played in 2016 and the official website still says IMG "will unveil its plans for the event in the coming months." Obviously IMG hasn't announced anything yet, so once again there will only be two Australian majors. The PGA will be the final big event of 2017.
But what an event it should be! Sergio will be back for the first time since 2010. He'll be joined by Adam Scott, Marc Leishman, and Matt Jones. Wade Ormsby, who picked up his first ET win last weekend, and Australian Open runner-up Jonas Blixt are also in the field.
Once again, we fans in the US get prime time golf. GC's live coverage begins tonight at 8:30pm ET, so you don't have to worry about missing any of Tiger's play.
