- 1939 PGA Championship · Championship identity
  The official Media Guide directly enumerates the 22nd 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: 1-up over Byron Nelson (37 Holes).
