This Oklahoma golf course was just named the host of the 2032 PGA Championship
Southern Hills Country Club, designed by Perry Maxwell and opened in 1936, will make it an even six-pack of PGA Championships, the PGA of America announced on Tuesday.
The course in Tulsa, Oklahoma, will host the 2032 PGA Championship, making it the first venue to host the event six times.
'We could not be more excited to return to Southern Hills Country Club for the 114th PGA Championship in May 2032,' said PGA of America President Don Rea Jr., PGA Master Professional and Owner/Operator of Augusta Ranch Golf Club (Arizona). 'Southern Hills and its incredible members as well as the entire Tulsa community have always welcomed the PGA of America, our PGA Members and our Major Championships with authentic, neighborly hospitality. We look forward to bringing the PGA Championship back to not only a first class community, but a world renowned golf course that will challenge the world's best golfers as they compete for the iconic Wanamaker Trophy.'
The course was renovated multiple times by the likes of Robert Trent Jones and Keith Foster, and in 2019 Gil Hanse and Jim Wagner wrapped up work on a restoration that put much of Maxwell's original intent back into the layout.
Southern Hills has been host to a slew of championships, ranging from the U.S. Women's Open to the Senior PGA Championship and counts among its men's majors five past PGA Championships (1970, '82, '94, '07, '22) and three U.S. Opens ('58, '77 and '01).
In 2022, with help from Mito Pereira's heartbreaking debacle on the 72nd hole, Justin Thomas hoisted the 2-foot tall, 27-pound silver Wanamaker Trophy for a second time after defeating Will Zalatoris in a three-hole aggregate playoff.
The layout is No. 1 among private courses in Oklahoma in Golfweek's Best rankings, and it is No. 38 on Golfweek's Best list of classic courses built before 1960 in the U.S.

What were the top 10 storylines in sports in May?
Some fans might view May as one of the slower months on the sports calendar, but there were still plenty of things that happened over the last 31 days as we prepare for summer. The NBA and NHL playoffs each held crucial rounds in their tournaments, with the finals in each sport now being set. The biggest game in club soccer was also held in May, with the UEFA Champions League final taking place this past Saturday. Of course, there was also the Indianapolis 500, which is one of the top motorsports events of the year. With May coming to a close, let's take a look at the 10 best sports storylines from the month. 10 best sports storylines of May 10. Caitlin Clark sustains quad injury after incredible start After averaging 19 points and 9.3 assists over the first four games of her second WNBA season, Caitlin Clark went down with a quad injury. It was originally expected to keep her out two weeks, but recently the Indiana Fever announced her recovery timeline could be extended. It's more likely she's re-evaluated at the two-week deadline, which would fall around June 8, and another update about her status is released. 9. Christian Pulisic headlines several notable players left off Gold Cup roster Despite being AC Milan's leading scorer, Christian Pulisic was left off the United States Men's National Team roster for this summer's Gold Cup. USMNT will also be without Tim Weah, Geno Reyna, and Weston McKinnie — three key components of their 2022 FIFA World Cup squad that made it to the knockout stage. Two things are at play with this: It will be interesting to see how the USMNT fairs without a slew of its veterans, and how it goes about compiling its roster for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. 8. Scottie Scheffler wins PGA Championship a year after arrest Scheffler was dominant all weekend on his way to a five-stroke victory. He shot six-under par during Round 3 of the tournament to give himself a huge advantage heading into the final day. While LIV Golf's Jon Rahm got hot on the front-nine of Round 4, he could never catch Scheffler, and ultimately dropped to eighth place. Scheffler's consistency was key to winning the PGA Championship, and it's also been displayed in his ability to climb and remain atop the the PGA Tour rankings. 7. "Sovereignty" wins Kentucky Derby; "Journalism" wins Preakness Sovereignty beat Journalism, the favorite, to win the Kentucky Derby on the back of conditioning to outlast his opponent down the final straight. Following the win, though, Sovereignty did not race in the Preakness, losing its chance at winning the triple crown. The favorite again, Journalism took care of business in the Preakness. 6. Florida Panthers and Edmonton Oilers to face off in rematch of last year's Stanley Cup finals The NHL's Stanley Cup Finals will feature a rematch from last season. But, the road to getting back there wasn't that simple. In the first round, the Oilers found themselves trailing the LA Kings 2-0 and were losing in Game 3, but they mounted a successful comeback in that third game and then won the next three in a row to take the series in six. That gave them momentum to run through the rest of the Western Conference, disposing of the Las Vegas Knights and Dallas Stars in five games. The Panthers also found themselves down 2-0, but in the second round of the Eastern Conference playoffs, to the Toronto Maple Leafs. They bounced back to win the next three games, before dropping Game 6, setting up a do-or-die Game 7. The Panthers displayed their championship-level chops, and kept alive their rights to defend it. After beating the Carolina Hurricanes in five games, the Panthers find themselves back in the finals facing an Oilers team that's bound to be hungrier after losing to them in 2024. 5. Indiana Pacers make NBA Finals for first time since 2000; will face top seed Oklahoma City Thunder There weren't many surprises in the Western Conference side of the bracket in the NBA Playoffs. The Thunder, who won 68 games in the regular season to earn the top seed, clinched their ticket to the NBA Finals after dispatching the Minnesota Timberwolves in five games in the Western Conference finals. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, who was also named MVP for the regular season earlier in May, led his team to a series victory with multiple 30-plus-point performances, earning Western Conference finals MVP in the process. He also helped the Thunder outlast the Denver Nuggets in seven games in the Western Conference semifinals. The Eastern Conference, meanwhile, had a couple of major upsets in the conference semis. The Pacers took down the top-seeded Cleveland Cavaliers, while the New York Knicks defeated the defending champion Boston Celtics as star Jayson Tatum suffered an Achilles tear in Game 4 of that series. As the Pacers and Knicks renewed their rivalry, Tyrese Haliburton made a shot for the ages to help send Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals to overtime after Indiana came back from a 14-point deficit in the final minutes. The Pacers won that game and took a 3-1 series lead before finishing off the Knicks in Game 6, with Pascal Siakam winning series MVP. 4. Dallas Mavericks win first overall pick in NBA Draft lottery despite 1.8% chance Alarm bells for conspiracy theorists sounded earlier in May when the Mavericks won the NBA Draft Lottery. They had a 1.8% chance to win the lottery, making their win the fourth-most unlikely in the 40-year history of the event. The win also came after the Mavericks were out of the playoff picture following the controversial Luka Doncic trade, allowing them to win the lottery and likely draft Duke star Cooper Flagg with the No. 1 overall pick. The San Antonio Spurs won the second pick, while the Philadelphia 76ers got the third pick. 3. PSG wins first Champions League in historic fashion No Kylian Mbappe, no problem. In its first season after the French star departed the club, PSG was still able to win Europe's top club title. After defeating Arsenal 3-1 in the aggregate in the semifinals earlier in May, PSG had a historic win in the Champions League final on Saturday. It took down Inter Milan, 5-0, for the largest win in the history of the Champions League final. Désiré Doué scored two of the goals, while Achraf Hakimi, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Senny Mayulu each added a score in the victory. 2. NFL releases schedule; featuring Week 16 doubleheader The final major event of the NFL's offseason took place in May, with the league releasing its 272-game schedule for the 2025 regular season. There were a few big highlights on the NFL on FOX's schedule for the 2025 season. It will air a rematch of Super Bowl LIX in Week 2, when the Philadelphia Eagles head to Kansas City to take on the Chiefs. There will also be a Saturday doubleheader in Week 16. The Washington Commanders will host the Eagles in a rematch of the NFC Championship Game. The other matchup is between the Green Bay Packers and Chicago Bears. Of course, schedule release day is also the Super Bowl for the media departments of each team. This year's schedule release brought no shortage of creative videos to help teams unveil their schedules. 1. Alex Palou finally wins his first Indy 500 This INDYCAR season's most dominant driver was dominant again in the sport's biggest race. Palou won for the fifth time in six races when he won his first Indy 500 over Memorial Day weekend. He took the lead with 14 laps remaining and never relinquished, persevering in a race that had several chaotic twists and turns. The race, which was the first time it ever aired on FOX, also had its best viewership in nearly two decades as it averaged 7.05 million viewers. Check out all of our Daily Rankers.

Scottie Scheffler Captures Memorial for Third Win of 2025
Scottie Scheffler Captures Memorial for Third Win of 2025 originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Winning three of the last four events on any tour is cause for celebration. Winning the PGA Championship and the Memorial Tournament, which is as close to a major as possible, makes the victories more than just wins; they are a calling card to all those who think they have a chance. Advertisement Sunday proved that they don't. Scottie Scheffler sent another message to the world of golf, saying his dominance in 2024 with eight victories is back with a vengeance. During this current stretch of play, Scheffler is a combined 60-under par in four tournaments. During the last 16 rounds, he has only recorded one round over par, a 71 in the second round of the Charles Schwab Challenge. Scottie Scheffler tees off on the fifth hole during the final round of the Memorial Tournament at Muirfield Village Golf Club in Dublin, Ohio.© Adam Cairns/Columbus Dispatch / USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn Images In the eight weekend rounds, Scheffler has a scoring average of 67. 'He didn't play, for him, spectacular golf; he played what he should do,' tournament host Jack Nicklaus said of Scheffler's game on Sunday. 'He played good, solid, smart golf and, you know, three 70s and a 68, that's pretty good golf under the conditions out there. That's what the best player in the world does. He comes out, does things the right way, manages it and sees who is on the leaderboard and who is challenging him.' Advertisement The win, Scheffler's 16th, was a traditional victory for the world No. 1. Entering the final round, Scheffler had a one-shot lead. It was a lead he would never relinquish, and one he nursed along through the entire front nine, making a lone birdie on the seventh hole and making the turn with a two-shot lead. Scheffler would make a lone bogey on the 10th hole but make up for the misstep on the 11th with his second birdie of the day, and turned the tables on his closest pursuer, Ben Griffin. 'Definitely an important moment in the tournament because after the bogey on 10, making that putt on 11 was definitely really important to kind of keep him at bay,' Scheffler said of one of the turning points of the round. 'I didn't actually see his putt there, but I knew that it missed, and so then I'm in control of the box on 12, and I went in there and hit a really nice shot, which I think was really important as well, put it in position there.' Advertisement The par on the 12th for Scheffler and bogey for Griffin didn't close out the tournament, but it continued Scheffler's solid and focused play over the last two years. 'I felt like the only time I had to press was when I was chasing in Houston in the final round,' Scheffler said of the last time another player dictated to him. 'I was pretty far back going into the last round, and so going into the back nine, I had to maybe change some lines into some of the pins and play a bit more aggressively than I had to, for instance, today. It's different playing with the lead than chasing. I think I started that day, five or six shots back against Min Woo (Lee). So, I would say that's really the last time that I felt like I really needed to press a little bit.' Scheffler finished T2 in Houston to Lee. Since then, he hasn't finished outside of the top 10, with the U.S. Open next up. 'It's really hard to put into words what it's like sitting up here with arguably the greatest player of all time, and we're sitting here talking about stuff that I did today on his golf course,' Scheffler said, sitting with Nicklaus. 'It's a pretty weird feeling.' Finally, something that causes Scheffler some angst. This story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Jun 2, 2025, where it first appeared.

Scottie Scheffler joins Tiger Woods as only repeat winners at Memorial
Scottie Scheffler never lost the lead and never gave anyone much of a chance down the stretch Sunday in another relentless performance, closing with a 2-under 70 for a four-shot victory to join Tiger Woods as the only repeat winners of the Memorial. Slowed by hand surgery at the start of the year from a freak accident, Scheffler appears to be in full stride with one major already in the bag and another around the corner at the U.S. Open. "It's always a hard week," said Scheffler, who finished at 10-under 278. "We battled really hard on the weekend. Overall it was a great week." On one of the tougher PGA Tour tests of the year, Scheffler made one bogey over the final 40 holes at Muirfield Village. "Well, you did it again," tournament host Jack Nicklaus told him while walking off the green. Ben Griffin tried to make it interesting at the end with a 12-foot eagle on the par-5 15th and a 25-foot birdie putt on the par-3 16th to close within two shots with two to play. Scheffler, however, doesn't make mistakes. Griffin made double bogey on the 17th. Griffin made a 4-foot par on the 18th for a 73 to finish alone in second, worth $2.2 million, more than what he earned when he won at Colonial last week. Sepp Straka (70) finished another shot back. "You know Scottie's probably going to play a good round of golf," Straka said. "The guy's relentless. He loves competition, and he doesn't like giving up shots. But it's one of those courses where it can always happen, so you got to be prepared for it. I felt like I gave myself a lot of chances to kind of make a push." Scheffler has now won three times in his last four starts — the exception was Colonial, a tie for fourth the week after winning the PGA Championship — and expanded his margin at No. 1 in the world to levels not seen since Woods in his peak years. Woods is a five-time winner at Memorial who won three straight from 1999 through 2001. No one had repeated at Muirfield Village since then until Scheffler. His performances lately look a lot more like Nicklaus the way he wears down the field by rarely getting out of position. Rickie Fowler had his first top 10 of the year at just the right time. He made par on the 18th to tie for seventh, earning him a spot in the British Open. Fowler tied with Brandt Snedeker at 1-under 287, but gets the one Open exemption available based on a higher world ranking — Fowler at No. 124, Snedeker at No. 430. "That's one I've wanted on the schedule," said Fowler, who faces a 36-hole qualifier for the U.S. Open on Monday. Both received sponsor exemptions to the Memorial, a signature event on the PGA Tour. For Scheffler, it was his fifth victory in a $20 million signature event in the last two years. This one looked inevitable, but only after a quick development early on the back nine. Scheffler ended 31 holes without a bogey at tough Muirfield Village on the 10th hole, dropping his lead to one shot. Griffin had 4 feet for birdie on the par-5 11th. Scheffler made his 15-foot birdie putt and Griffin missed. Griffin bogeyed the next two holes, and just like that, Scheffler was four shots ahead. That's how it was at the PGA Championship — tight one minute, a blowout the next, and the sweetest walk toward the 18th green with victory secure. This one ended in a handshake with Nicklaus, who had said earlier in the week of Scheffler, "He plays a lot like I did." Nicklaus said he was all about fairways and greens, having plenty of chances and making enough of them to post a score. That's the Scheffler way, too, even if it didn't always look that way at the start of the final round. With mud on the golf ball in the first fairway, too much spin on short irons on the next few holes, Scheffler didn't have a birdie putt until the fifth hole. He saved par seven times in the final round, including the final hole. Reporting by The Associated Press. Want great stories delivered right to your inbox?
