PGA Uses Pre-Sale Program For 2012 Championship

August 4, 2010

The PGA of America and Kiawah Island Golf Resort near Charleston, S.C., will restrict ticket sales to the PGA Championship game there in 2012, and to a procedure whereby consumers can visit www.pga2012.com to pre-register for a six-week sales window between Nov. 15 and Dec. 31. All pre-registrants will be reminded in early fall of their opportunity to buy tickets during the 2010 pre-sale.

Pre-registrants get priority access when sales open Nov. 15.

The PGA says the procedure allows for the 2012 PGA Championship to manage early interest in tickets to the championship match.

On average, 97 of the top 100 ranked players in the Official World Golf Rankings participate in the PGA Championship. The game is the first time a major championship will be contested in the Palmetto State.
