Hey there, golf fans! As we gear up for the 108th PGA Championship, excitement is buzzing in the air here in Florida and beyond. Just think about it: this prestigious event is happening near Philadelphia, at the stunning Aronimink Golf Club in Newtown Square. The tournament returns to this historic venue for the first time since 1962, and you can bet it’s going to be a showstopper!
From May 14 to 17, some of the world’s best golfers will be teeing off. Just check out the lineup! Defending champion Scottie Scheffler, who took home the title last year at Quail Hollow Club, is back in action, aiming to repeat his victory. He’s joined by the likes of Rory McIlroy, the current Masters Champion, and Brooks Koepka, a three-time PGA Championship winner. Not to mention Bryson DeChambeau, Jon Rahm, Collin Morikawa, and many more. Talk about a star-studded field!
What to Expect at Aronimink
The Aronimink Golf Club, designed by Donald Ross back in 1926, is known for its challenging layout. The course stretches over 7,394 yards with a par of 70. Golfers will need to bring their A-game, especially since the last major tournament held at Aronimink was won by the legendary Gary Player. That was way back in ’62—can you believe it?
With 156 players in the mix, including 20 PGA professionals, the stakes are high. There’s also some serious cash on the line, though the exact purse for 2026 hasn’t been announced yet. Last year, the winner snagged a cool $19 million, which makes you wonder what this year’s prize will be, right? If Scheffler can win again, he’ll be the first back-to-back champion since Brooks Koepka did it in 2018 and 2019. Now that’s a legacy!

The atmosphere is sure to be electric as fans rally behind their favorites and witness history in the making.
