History

The BMW PGA Championship is the flagship event of the DP World Tour and one of its prestigious Rolex Series, and its home — the West Course at Wentworth in Surrey — is among the most storied parkland layouts in Britain. Designed by the celebrated architect Harry Colt and opened in 1926, the course earned the nickname the Burma Road for its demanding length and tree-lined difficulty, and was reshaped in recent years under the eye of former champion Ernie Els.

The PGA Championship dates back to 1955 and has been staged at Wentworth almost every year since 1984, its roll of honour reading like a who's who of European golf, from Seve Ballesteros and Nick Faldo to Rory McIlroy. Set amid the pines and mansions of Virginia Water on London's south-western fringe, it draws the strongest home field of the season and pairs top-class golf with a festival atmosphere of music and entertainment. The closing par-five eighteenth, reachable in two, has settled many a dramatic finish.
