Congressional Country Club, founded in 1924, has hosted many major Championships, including three U.S. Opens, the 1976 PGA Championship and the 2022 KPMG Women's PGA Championship. With the addition of the 2025 Senior PGA Championship, Congressional will become only the fourth course to host all four traveling Men’s Majors: the U.S. Open, the U.S. Senior Open, the PGA Championship, and the Senior PGA Championship. Additionally, Congressional is scheduled to host the 2027 KPMG Women's PGA Championship, 2030 PGA Championship and the 2037 Ryder Cup, and is slated to host the Senior PGA Championship again in 2033.
Established in 1937, the Senior PGA Championship is the oldest of the five major championships in men’s senior golf. The Championship features 156 of the top professional golfers who are 50 or older competing for the title of Senior PGA Champion. Past winners include Jack Nicklaus, Gary Player, Tom Watson, Bernhard Langer, Steve Stricker and Colin Montgomerie.
