- 1926 PGA Championship · Championship identity
  The official Media Guide directly enumerates the 9th playing, champion, site, and its year-page date span. The recorded venue and champion preserve the official PGA Championship History entry’s published text. The champion-only winner field is intentionally separate from the official match-play result: 5&3 over Leo Diegel.

- Red
  The 1926 PGA record names Salisbury Golf Links. The county owner establishes physical Course continuity from historical Salisbury to Eisenhower Red. The venue should retain Salisbury as its historical recorded name; this is not a claim of unchanged Club ownership.
