PGA of America: Southern Hills Championship Course
- Southern Hills
  The PGA venue profile identifies the Championship Course and explicitly lists the 1970, 1982, 1994 and 2007 PGAs before its fifth hosting in 2022. The completed 2022 official result corroborates that edition. The separate West Nine is not assigned. Continuing physical course identity does not assert unchanged holes after the 2019 restoration.
