The first of five senior men's major championships has been canceled.
The PGA of America announced Thursday morning that the KitchenAid Senior PGA Championship will not be played this year. The event, the second major on the PGA Tour Champions schedule, was slated to be played May 21-24 at Harbor Shores Resort in Benton Harbor, Michigan.
Officials said the decision was made based on a stay-at-home order that was put into place in Michigan on March 24. That order currently will run through April 13.
“While we are incredibly disappointed, we all understand that protecting public health is the highest priority,” PGA of America CEO Seth Waugh said.
