  • Championship Perimeter Shuttle Available in 2007

    We took note of your comments in our 2006 Media Survey, and we will have a vehicle and driver available by appointment in the Media Center to help media access certain on-course locations by way of a perimeter route and drop-off points. We know many of you carry heavy equipment, and we want to ensure you get to where you need to be as quickly as possible.

    PGA TOUR regulations prohibit us from using golf carts to transport media around the course. But we hope this solution will make the Championship a more enjoyable experience for those of you who carry equipment. There will be further instructions in the Media Center Championship week.
