The Professional Golfers' Association of America
 PROFILE
You have to be a real swinger (and know your clubs) to get into the PGA of America. The 26,000-member association of professional golfers is the world's largest sports organization. Its members are primarily club pros; most touring professionals are members, but they also belong to the separate PGA Tour organization. The PGA conducts some 40 tournaments and runs four major golf competitions: the Ryder Cup, the PGA Championship, the PGA Seniors' Championship, and the PGA Grand Slam of Golf. In 1998 the PGA sold its two trade shows (the PGA Merchandise Show and the PGA International Golf Show) to Reed Elsevier. Rodman Wanamaker, a Philadelphia department store tycoon, organized the PGA in 1916.
