Sunriver Resort in Central Oregon will host the 50th PGA Professional National Championship in June 2017. It marks the fourth time the event has been held at Sunriver.
The event will feature a field of 312 professionals using both the Crosswater and Meadows golf courses at Sunriver. The resort had previously hosted the championship in 2001, 2007 and 2013.

“We’re excited to welcome back the PGA of America by hosting the 50th PGA Professional National Championship,” said John Willis, Sunriver’s Director of Golf Operations. “The opportunity to host this national championship for a fourth time is an honor.”

The championship will send the top 20 players to the PGA Championship and will feature players from around the country.

Crosswater and the Meadows courses have hosted big-time events before including NCAA Championships, USGA Championships and this summer, the PNGA Men’s Amateur.
