The PGA of America likes to have all of its ducks in a row and allow itself plenty of time to plan for future Championships.

After the 107th edition of the event comes to a close on Sunday, attention will quickly turn to next year’s edition, when the PGA Championship heads back to Aronimink Golf Club in Pennsylvania.

It's also been announced that Southern Hills in Oklahoma will host the Major Championship for a record-extending sixth time in 2032.

Here are all the future PGA Championship venues that have been confirmed so far.

2026: Aronimink Golf Club, Newtown Square, Pennsylvania

Donald Ross-designed Aronimink will be the first venue to stage each of the PGA of America’s three rotating Major Championships (PGA Championship, KitchenAid Senior PGA Championship and KPMG Women’s PGA Championship).

Sei Young Kim won the 2020 KPMG Women’s PGA Championship when there were no fans present because of the Covid pandemic.

This will be the first time Aronimink has hosted the PGA Championship since Gary Player's triumph in 1962.

2027 & 2034: PGA Frisco, Frisco, Texas

The PGA will be bringing two Championships to the Gil Hanse-designed Fields Ranch East Course at PGA Frisco, which will play at more than 7,600 yards from the back tees.

According to Golf Digest, the Ryder Cup will also likely visit Texas further down the line. Frisco is the new HQ for the PGA of America.

PGA Frisco hosted the 2023 Senior PGA Championship, which was won by Steve Stricker.

2028: The Olympic Club, Lake Course, San Francisco, California

The Olympic Club boasts a storied history and a long list of great champions. Although it will be the first time that the PGA Championship visits the Lake Course, many will remember it for its US Open victors, with Webb Simpson being the last of these in 2012.

It was here where Yuka Saso won the 2021 US Women's Open, and the venue has a couple of other very big events coming in the future, too.

The club will play host to the 2028 Olympic Games Golf competition, and five years later the Ryder Cup will come to town.

2029: Baltusrol Golf Club, Lower Course, Springfield, New Jersey

The 2029 PGA Championship will be staged on Baltusrol’s famed Lower Course, which is an A.W. Tillinghast design.

This will be Baltusrol’s third PGA Championship, with Phil Mickelson (2005) and Jimmy Walker (2016) both lifting the Wanamaker Trophy at the historic club.

Ruoning Yin also won the 2023 KPMG Women's PGA Championship at Baltusrol.

2030: Congressional Country Club Club, Bethesda, Maryland

The Blue Course has already hosted three US Opens and a PGA Championship.

Extensively renovated by Andrew Green in 2020-21, it's scheduled to host a number of PGA of America events as well as the 2037 Ryder Cup.

Congressional was where Rory McIlroy famously captured his first Major Championship title, when he won the 2011 US Open by a huge eight-stroke margin.

2031: The Ocean Course Kiawah Island, South Carolina

The demanding Ocean Course at Kiawah Island is set to hold its third PGA Championship in 2031 after a couple of big name winners in its first two stagings of the event.

McIlroy won his first Wanamaker Trophy by eight strokes at Kiawah in 2012, whilst Phil Mickelson (50) became the oldest man to win a Major Championship here in 2021.

The course also hosted the 1991 Ryder Cup. Dubbed as the 'War on the Shore', the USA won 14.5-13.5 after Bernhard Langer missed a crucial six-footer on the last hole.

2032: Southern Hills Country Club, Oklahoma

The Championship Course, which was originally designed by Perry Maxwell, first hosted the PGA Championship in 1970, which was the year Dave Stockton won the first of two PGA titles.
