PGA Championship Paintings and Prints
The PGA of America's championship, played since 1916 on many of the country's finest courses.
The PGA Championship is conducted by the PGA of America, the association of club and teaching professionals. It was first played in 1916 at Siwanoy Country Club in Bronxville, New York, where Jim Barnes won, and its winner receives the Wanamaker Trophy, named for Rodman Wanamaker, who helped found the association. It was a match-play event until 1957 and has been played at stroke play since 1958. In 2019 it moved from August to May, making it the second major of the year.
The PGA Championship is the only major whose field includes a group of club professionals, who qualify through their own national championship. It has moved among a wide range of courses, and many of the country's most celebrated courses have hosted it at least once.
A good number of those courses appear in Linda Hartough's collection. Oakmont has hosted the PGA Championship three times and Southern Hills five. Oakland Hills hosted it in 1972, 1979 and 2008; at the 1972 championship, Gary Player's shot over the willow tree and pond on the 16th, a hole in the collection, won him the title. Medinah hosted it in 1999 and 2006, Aronimink in 1962 and 2026, Olympia Fields in 1925 and 1961, and Laurel Valley in 1965. Pinehurst No. 2 hosted it in 1936, Congressional in 1976, Pebble Beach in 1977, Winged Foot in 1997 and Bethpage Black in 2019.
Because these courses have hosted several championships, the collection's paintings of them are listed here as PGA Championship courses rather than as paintings of a particular PGA Championship.
