The Alfred S. Bourne Trophy and the Wanamaker Trophy overlooked the 18th hole at Southern Hills Country Club on Tuesday. Pictures needed to be taken because moments before, the PGA announced the 2021 KitchenAid Senior PGA Championship will be coming to Tulsa, as well as a PGA Championship between 2024 and 2030.

“When we bring a championship to a golf course, it’s really about a community, about a club, about the golf course,” PGA of America President Paul Levy said. “Southern Hills has it all. It’s got a great history. It’s in their mission (that) they want to have championships at Southern Hills Country Club. The golf course stands for itself.”

Southern Hills has hosted seven major championships, its last being the PGA Championship in 2007 when Tiger Woods won his fourth Wanamaker Trophy.

Tulsa will host its first Senior PGA Championship, though.

The 2017 Senior PGA Championship included participants such as Tom Lehman, Fred Funk and Corey Pavin, who were all in Owasso on Monday for the Folds of Honor’s annual Patriot Cup. Pavin finished in second at the 1994 PGA Championship at Southern Hills.
