The Moonah Links PGA Classic was held on the Moonah Links the week after it had hosted the Victorian PGA Championship. It was added to the 2020–21 schedule following a number of tournament cancellations. With the prospect of travel difficulties, the final 36 holes were played on a Thursday.[1] The National PGA Classic was added to the 2021–22 schedule following the cancellation of events in New Zealand. It was played on the Gunnamatta course.[2]
The tournament returned in 2023 as The National Tournament, played again at The National Golf Club, as well as being the season-ending event.[3]
