Wendy's Champions Skins Game
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Wendy's Champions Skins Game is an unofficial golf tournament on the Champions Tour. It is played annually in February in Maui, Hawaii at Kaanapali Golf Resort (Wailea Gold Course). Wendy's is the main sponsor of the tournament.
It is played in a skins game format were each hole, and the money or "skin" associated with it, is won by one player only if they win that hole outright. If no player wins the hole, the "skin" carries over to the next hole. From 1988 to 2005, it was played as an individual event with four players (five in 1991). Beginning in 2006, it was played as an alternate-shot two-man team event with four teams.
The purse for the 2008 tournament was US$770,000. The tournament was founded in 1988 as the Senior Skins Game.
