LOS ANGELES, Nov 4 (Reuters) - The PGA Tour's Fall Series event held in Arizona for the last three years, will be shifted to California for next season, the Tour said on Wednesday.

American Troy Matteson won the event last month when it was held at Grayhawk Golf Club in Scottsdale, though the tournament will take place at CordeValle in San Martin in Oct. 2010, Tour Commissioner Tim Finchem said in a statement.

The tournament will now be played close to the corporate headquarters of the tournament sponsor, an electronics retailer, Finchem added.
