Golf tournament that seems to be no notable and completely lacks sources. Hahc21 {{small|[TALK][CONTRIBS]}} 16:56, 26 May 2012 (UTC)

  • The BMW PGA Championship is the PGA European Tour home's tournament, is often regarded as the Flagship Event of the European Tour and each tournament generates a huge amount of coverage in European media. It attracts a strong field and usually has the highest prize money of any regular event which the tour organises. I added references to the article. --StephanQz (talk) 23:34, 26 May 2012 (UTC)

Delete, Not a golf major championship, Flagship events or important events are ill defined and transitory. Do you know how many tournaments have been called Golf's Super Bowl or 5th major?...William 19:22, 29 May 2012 (UTC)
