The Telus Skins Game was a Canadian annual summer golf event, sponsored by Telus, and officially known as the Telus World Skins Game . It was hosted at a different golf course each year within Canada.

Contents

Between 2006 and 2012, the Telus Skins Game incorporated a "world" theme, which incorporated five golfers from different countries.

In May 2013, it was announced that the Skins Game would not be played after Telus decided not to renew its deal as title sponsor. [1]
