The PGA Championship is headed back to Southern Hills next year, the Oklahoma course that gets its eighth major championship earlier than expected after the PGA of America cut ties with former Pres. Trump.

The club was announced Monday as the 2022 host, which means it will get back-to-back big events starting with the Senior PGA Championship this May. That was one of the reasons it was appealing to move up Southern Hills in the PGA Championship rotation. The PGA of America already has a staff on site in Tulsa, Oklahoma, along with an operations blueprint that won't need much work.

“We have a Senior PGA Championship there this year. We also have a staff onsite for Southern Hills, who now will be able to stay on through for the PGA Championship,” Haigh said. “All of these are important factors when we're less than 16 months away from playing. And we think Southern Hills is a wonderful golf course. It always has been.”

The course recently went through a restoration project led by Gil Hanse, with greens and bunkering a big focus of his work on the original Perry Maxwell design. The club opened in 1935. It was the second time since Trump entered politics that the PGA of America left one of his courses. They mutually agreed to cancel the PGA Grand Slam of Golf at Trump National LA in 2015 after Trump announced his candidacy.
