The PGA Championship is one of the easier majors to buy tickets for and attend.

This year the 104th PGA Championship is at Southern Hills Country Club in Tulsa, OK., and while it is a major championship, the tickets aren’t nearly as difficult to purchase as The Masters are.

Planning for these things is the best option when someone wants to attend, so buying tickets sooner than later is usually the best way to do it. However, not everyone knows if they can go, so there are still options for fans looking to attend Southern Hills.

Initially, fans could purchase all ticket options on the PGA Championship website, but some of those options are now sold out.

There are still daily tickets for Thursday available at $195 plus taxes, but there isn’t many left. The site has the option to exchange tickets for other days, but that could quickly diminish as well.

So if you’re interested in attending, a secondary site will be the best option at this late in the game. Ticket prices vary depending on when a fan wants to attend the event.

It’s cheaper to go on Thursday than to attend the championship Sunday round. Those prices are like that because everyone wants to see the winner, but not everyone is willing to miss work and go during the week.

Tickets could go as high as $1500 for a Sunday round, but it is a lot more reasonable for those who don’t mind attending earlier in the week.

The most expensive tickets we’ve seen on secondary sites get listed between $520-$1500. Other sites did have cheaper tickets, and they range from $69 to $82.

Southern Hills is an extremely nice club and has hosted the PGA Championship before in 2007, so that may be why tickets are a bit pricy, or it could be because Tiger Woods is in the field, and that alone could drive up prices.

During the 2021 PGA Championship at Kiawah Island, the average ticket price was around $200, so while there are much more expensive options, this isn’t a bad total for a major championship.

Again, the venue has a lot to do with it and who is in the field, so fans planning to attend should expect to spend some money on tickets and the concession stands.

However, with Phil Mickelson not in the field to defend his title, that could help the prices go down, but it’s unlikely. The Big Cat moves the needle by himself, so unless he withdraws or misses the cut, that price tag isn’t moving.

With the first round of the 104th PGA Championship on May 19th, the ticket numbers on these resale sites are dwindling fast, so if interested in going, purchasing sooner than later is the best bet to secure getting in the gate.
