Thirteen Philadelphia PGA of America Golf Professionals will be competing in the 2024 PGA Professional Championship presented by Club Car, Corebridge Financial and Rolex. The championship will be played Sunday, April 28 to Wednesday, May 1, on the Fields Ranch East and West courses at PGA Frisco in Frisco, Texas.

The PGA Professional Championship, the national championship for PGA of America Golf Professionals from across the country, features a 312-player field representing all 41 PGA of America Sections. The top 20 finishers will earn a spot on the Corebridge Financial Team to compete two weeks later in the 2024 PGA Championship at Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville, Kentucky, from May 13-19.
