It will start on Monday, August 7th, 2017 and go through Sunday, August 13th, 2017. Tickets are now on sale on TicketNetwork.com, starting at $8 for the practice rounds on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, and $85 for the championship rounds on Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

The 99th PGA Championship will be a crowning achievement for Quail Hollow after 5 decades of hosting tours. The club first started hosting prominent golf tours in 1969 including; the Kemper Open (1969-79); the World Seniors Invitational (1980-89); and the Quail Hollow Championship (formerly the Wachovia Championship), which began in 2003.

Quail Hollow Club will join Pinehurst Resort & Country Club (1936) and Tanglewood Golf Club of Winston-Salem (1974) as the only North Carolina venues to host a PGA Championship.

“It is with great pleasure that we bring the PGA Championship back to North Carolina, and to make our first visit to Quail Hollow Club, a venue and a community that has demonstrated its skill in hosting premier golf. In 2017, the PGA Championship will once again attract golf’s finest players worldwide to compete at a course well respected among the best players in the game and challenge for the Wanamaker Trophy.” commented PGA of America President Jim Remy.
