The Regions Tradition trophy has design elements tied back to Jack Nicklaus.

Like their companions of the same name for the younger golfers, these tournaments move location year by year. In 2011, Regions Bank became the sponsor of the Tradition and the tournament made its biggest move, east to Alabama and was played at Shoal Creek from 2011-2015. And those two were two of the founders of the initial Tradition event in Arizona — which Nicklaus went on to win four times on his own course.“They wanted a trophy unique to this tour that would have the feel of a major championship,” Gene Hallman, president and CEO of Eventive Sports and executive director of the Alabama Sports Foundation, said in a text message to AL.com.
Seen up close, the original trophy does not have the sparkle or shine of the Claret Jug. It has a small dent in the back.
