TheSkins Game
was an unofficial-money event on the
PGA Tour
from 1983 to 2008. It took place in November or December each year after the end of the official PGA Tour season. It was recognized by the PGA Tour but did not count towards the official money list. It was most recently sponsored by
LG
and was officially known as the
LG Skins Game
, hosted at the Indian Wells Golf Resort in
Indian Wells, California
.
The Skins Game differed from most PGA Tour golf tournaments in several ways. Only four golfers were invited to the tournament and the golfers played to win individual holes or "
skins
" in a
match play
format. Each hole was assigned a different monetary value and the golfer who won the hole with the best score outright won the money for that hole. In the event that two or more golfers tie (which is called "halving") on a hole, the skin is carried over to the next hole. In the event that two or more golfers halve the final hole, a playoff began until one golfer won a hole outright. (In a playoff that requires more than one playoff hole, if a player is not one of those that halve the playoff hole, he is eliminated—it was not "one tie, all tie".)
Fred Couples
was given the nickname of "Mr. Skins" because of his dominance in the Skins Game. He won ,405,000 and 77 skins in 11 appearances. He won five of the Skins Games overall.

LA QUINTA, Calif. -- Gary Panks designed the
Trilogy Golf Club at La Quinta
, a public-access golf course in the desert of Southern California, to be a test of players of all skill levels. What Panks couldn't have known was that among the players testing his course would be three of the top players on the PGA Tour and the best woman golfer in the world.
