In the event of a tie for first place after 72 holes at the 2026 PGA Championship, there will be a three-hole aggregate score playoff on holes Nos. 10, 17 and 18 at Aronimink Golf Club. If still tied, there will be a sudden-death playoff on No. 18 repeated until a winner is determined.

The 472-yard, par-4 10th features two fairway bunkers and a dangerous pond guarding the front left of the water-surrounded green. The 17th is a lengthy 229-yard par 3, where any tee shot to the left could find a pond that runs down the entire left side of the green. The finishing 490-yard, demanding 18th confronts players with trees on both sides and a trio of bunkers on the right side of the fairway. The approach is uphill to a large, terraced green. Pin positions will likely favor the four corners of the green complex.

The PGA Championship became a stroke-play event in 1958 after using a match-play format for its first 39 iterations.

There have been five PGA Championship playoffs using the current three-hole aggregate playoff:

2000: Tiger Woods def. Bob May2004: Vijay Singh def. Chris DiMarco and Justin Leonard2010: Martin Kaymer def. Bubba Watson2011: Keegan Bradley def. Jason Dufner2022: Justin Thomas def. Will Zalatoris

There were eight playoffs prior to the introduction of the three-hole aggregate format, with the first two in 1961 and 1967 using an 18-hole playoff format and six using a sudden-death format.
