According to Bob Harig of ESPN on Monday, the PGA of America has found a new home for the 2022 PGA Championship. The Southern Hills Country Club in Tulsa, Oklahoma is replacing the Trump National Golf Club in New Jersey. That is because the PGA of America is trying to disassociate itself with the former controversial President of the United States, Donald Trump.

This will be the eighth time that Southern Hills Country Club will have hosted a men’s major. They previously hosted the 1958 U.S. Open, the 1970 PGA Championship, the 1977 U.S. Open, the 1982 PGA Championship, the 1994 PGA Championship, the 2001 U.S. Open, and the 2007 PGA Championship.

Historically, the four PGA Championship events at Southern Hills Country Club has been easier than the three U.S. Opens at the venue. The combined score for the three winners at the U.S. Open at the Southern Hills Country Club has been -3, while the combined score for the four winners at the PGA Championship has been -28.



Tiger Woods of Cypress, California was the last major champion in Southern Hills. At the 2007 PGA Championship, Woods defeated Woody Austin of Tampa, Florida by two strokes after posting a four-round score of -8. Woods’s best round was the second, where he posted a score of seven-under-par 63. In a single round of golf, Woods went from +1 and six shots back to a two-stroke cushion.

The 2021 PGA Championship will be in Kiawah Island, South Carolina. The tournament will return to the month of May, after being in August last year. Collin Morikawa of Los Angeles, California is the defending champion.
