In 2031, the PGA Championship will return to the Ocean Course at Kiawah Island. The course, which has hosted the tournament twice before, has set records for major champions in 2012 and 2021. Rory McIlroy set a PGA Championship record with an eight-shot victory in 2012, while Phil Mickelson became the oldest major champion at age 50 in 2021. Only eight other courses have hosted the PGA Championships three times or more.
Kiawah Island first gained attention in the golf world when it hosted the Ryder Cup in 1991, where the United States narrowly defeated Europe. The course’s challenging layout and stunning coastal vistas have made it a favorite among both players and fans alike. With the PGA Championship returning to Kiawah Island in 2031, there is sure to be excitement and anticipation surrounding the event. The Ocean Course’s history of producing record-breaking performances only adds to the allure of hosting the prestigious tournament once again.
