The 2025 Professional Golfers’ Association (PGA) Championship is set to take place at Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte from May 12-18, 2025, bringing one of golf’s four major championships back to the Queen City. Tournament Director Jason Soucy, who has spent decades in the sports industry, is leading the effort to organize the event, which is expected to draw global attention.
Unlike annual PGA Tour events, the PGA Championship features the world’s best players from multiple tours, including past major winners and international competitors. With a full field of 156 players and extensive fan engagement opportunities, the 2025 PGA Championship promises to be a landmark event for Charlotte, further solidifying its reputation as a premier golf destination.
On this episode of The Charlotte Ledger Podcast, Ledger editor Tony Mecia talks with Soucy about the magnitude of hosting a rotating major championship and logistical planning to accommodate tens of thousands of fans each day. They also discuss:
How Soucy became the director of a major golf tournament
The day-to-day preparations to get ready for this tournament
How the PGA Championship differs from other golf tournaments
What fans can expect to see and experience this year
What it’s been like working with Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte
We hope you enjoy the conversation with Jason Soucy.
