New South Wales PGA Championship

The New South Wales PGA Championship was a professional golf tournament played in New South Wales, Australia between 1923 and 2015.
The inaugural event was held in 1923 and was won by Fred Popplewell with a score of 311. Dan Soutar had led by two strokes after the first 36 holes at The Australian Golf Club but Popplewell took a three shot lead after a third round of 74 and held on in the final round to win by a stroke. The final 36 holes were played at Royal Sydney. It was a stroke-play event again in 1924 but thereafter it was generally match-play until World War II. After the war it was a match play event in 1946 and 1950 but otherwise it was a stroke-play tournament.
From the early 1980s the event was not played as a separate event, being incorporated into other tournaments. Later it was played as a non-tour event or as part of a second-tier tour. It became a PGA Tour of Australasia event from 2009 until 2015, except for 2013 when it was not played, but has not been held since.
Kel Nagle won the event 7 times while Eric Cremin won it 5 times.
