The world’s best professional golfers will gather to compete on Kiawah Island, South Carolina this week PGA championship Title and all the prestige that comes with it.
But while the recognition and automatic bid for the next five years for the four major golf tournaments is a dream for all participants, a win will also come with a nice payday.
Collin Morikawa was the last golfer to take home first place in the PGA Championship when he won the event last year for $ 1.98 million in prize money.
