The Birmingham club, best known as the controversial host of the 1990 PGA Championship, will be the site of the re-named Regions Tradition.

The 2011 Tradition will be played May 2-8, making it the first of five majors on the schedule for the 50-and-over tour.
"We're very excited to move this major championship to Alabama and Shoal Creek," Champions Tour president Mike Stevens said in a release.
The official announcement was made at a press conference Monday attended by Lee Trevino, among others. Trevino won the 1984 PGA Championship at Shoal Creek.
The club is better-known, however, for the criticism it received about its all-white membership leading up to the '90 PGA Championship. Wayne Grady won the tournament.
