When the 2018 PGA Championship tees off from Missouri's Bellerive Country Club on Aug. 9, the tournament will not only serve as the final golf major of this year's competition, it will also mark the 100th title tourney in the history of the event.
First held in October 1916 with a $500 prize, the PGA Championship has seen its popularity rise over the century, and with it, countless stories of golfers -- young and old alike -- who cemented their name in the sport's history.
That's why, with the 100th PGA Championship on deck, PGA of America wants fans to help identify -- and relive -- some of the best championships ever played since all the way back in 1916. PGA of America used a team of experts from the Golf Writers' Association of America, the Association of Golf Writers in the UK and past recipients of the PGA's Lifetime Achievement Award in Journalism to create a 16-seed bracket of the PGA Championship's best all-time moments. And beginning this summer, through the final round of this year's tournament, fans can vote to determine the best win in PGA history.
We've got everything you need to know about the 100th PGA Championship bracket, plus information on how you can watch archival footage of all those classic PGA title moments, below.
