Oak Hill Country Club in Rochester, New York, hosts the 105th PGA Championship as Justin Thomas defends the iconic Wanamaker Trophy he won last year at Southern Hills in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
JT edged out Will Zalatoris in a three-hole playoff last May following Mito Pereira’s agonising double bogey on the final hole after taking a one stroke lead to the 18th. The redesigned East Course last hosted the PGA Championship in 2013, when Jason Dufner triumphed by two strokes over Jim Furyk.
Other PGA Champions here include Jack Nicklaus in 1980 and Shaun Micheel in 2003. Oak Hill has also played host to three US Opens and the 1995 Ryder Cup, which was closely fought and eventually won 14.5-13.5 by Bernard Gallacher’s Team Europe. The Wanamaker Trophy is set to be closely fought for this week as the likes of world numbers one, two and three Jon Rahm, Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy are all highly fancied.
LIV Golf’s Brooks Koepka and Phil Mickelson, both two-time PGA Champions, are on a high after their T2nd-place finishes at The Masters, while last week’s LIV Golf Tulsa winner and two-time Major champion Dustin Johnson is back in form.
