One week before the Ryder Cup arrives in New York for the first time in 30 years, the PGA of America announced three more of its major championships through 2035 in the Empire State.
The KPMG Women's PGA will be played on the Black Course at Bethpage Black in 2028, and the PGA Championship will go to Bethpage Black for the second time in 2033.
The PGA of America said the PGA Championship will return to Oak Hill near Rochester for the fifth time in 2035.
The Ryder Cup starts Sept. 26 at Bethpage Black, the beefy public course on Long Island. Bethpage Black previously hosted the U.S. Open in 2002 and 2009.
The Women's PGA has been jointly run by the PGA of America and LPGA Tour since 2015 when the second-oldest major in women's golf received a significant upgrade. It had replaced a regular LPGA event held in the Rochester area at Locust Grove and Monroe. But it had not been back to New York under the tournament structure since 2015 at Westchester.
«Bringing the KPMG Women's PGA Championship to Bethpage Black is a significant milestone and reflects our commitment to staging this event at premier courses in major markets,» said Don Rea Jr., who is serving a two-year term as PGA of America president.
Since the PGA of America collaboration with the LPGA, the Women's PGA has gone to eight courses that previously hosted majors, including Baltusrol in New Jersey, Olympia Fields south of Chicago, Hazeltine in Minnesota and Congressional across from the nation's capital.
«Venues matter,» LPGA commissioner Craig Kessler said. «They elevate our athletes and amplify the moments that define our game.»
Brooks Koepka won the past two PGA Championships held in New York — in 2019 at Bethpage Black and in 2023 at Oak Hill.
