The most awaited 2024 PGA Championship will be held at the Valhalla Golf Club — the venue where champions like Tiger Woods and Rory Mcllroy have made history.

The Valhalla Golf Club will be hosting its fourth PGA Championship this year. Brooks Koepka will attempt to defend his title after a successful win at Oak Hill in 2023. The course of Valhalla comes with many more challenges for the players this year.

The No. 1 hole has the dogleg left par 4, a major test out the gate lengthened to 495 yards, posing a significant challenge right off the tee and on the approach shot. The No. 17 hole, also known as the straight up, consists of an uphill, where a tee shot must find a way to avoid the bunkers on its left and round.

The No. 16- Homestretch is the most difficult hole at Valhalla par 4 where any tee shot missed by the player will end up at a blocked shot or the creek. No. 14 is the longest par at Valhalla, featuring two bunkers in front and behind.

Rory Mcllroy won his second Wanamaker Trophy in 2014 at this venue, defeating Phil Mickelson by one stroke despite rainy conditions and nearing darkness. It was the last time Valhalla hosted the PGA Championship.

Earlier, Tiger Woods beat Bob May in a three-hole final score playoff in 2000.

Valhalla hosted the first PGA Championship in 1996, won by Mark Brooks, and the Ryder Cup in 2008. Jack Nicklaus designed the course of Valhalla, which is now one of golf's most renowned venues.

Michael Block will return to Valhalla where he scored a course-tying 63, after ranking in the top-15 at Oak Hill in 2023.

Kerry Haigh, the Chief Championships Officer of the PGA of America, will be heading to set the Valhalla, known for delivering an intensive but reasonable test year after year.
