PGA Championship 2025 venue: Course, location, history and more explored

The 2025 PGA Championship is the next stop on the PGA Tour, after completing the Truist Championship last week, where Sepp Straka won. The PGA Championship is the second major of the PGA Tour roster, and it will take place from May 15 to 18 at the Quail Hollow Golf and Country Club.

The championship course at Quail Hollow was designed by George Cobb. In 1961, the club opened for events, and later the club underwent renovations, including modifications by Arnold Palmer in 1986 and by Tom Fazio in 1997, 2003, and from 2014 to 2016.

The initial proposition of the Quail Hollow Club took place in a meeting held by James J. Harris in 1959. Later, it hosted tournaments like the Kemper Open from 1969 to 1979.

It has also been the venue for the Wells Fargo Championship since 2003, the 2017 PGA Championship, and the 2022 Presidents Cup.

The 2025 PGA Championship will be broadcast by ESPN, ESPN2 Alternate telecast, and CBS. Here is the entire TV schedule for the tournament:
