There has already been a change in the 2025 PGA Championship field, as one of the fan favorites has been forced to withdraw from the tournament due to injury.

A total of 22 golfers have won multiple PGA Championships over its 109 history. Of those 22, seven have won titles in back-to-back years. A select group of six have won three or more total championship over their careers, with Jack Nicklaus and Walter Hagen tied for the most with five titles each.
