  • PGA of America to Conduct 2021 PGA Championship on the Ocean Course at Kiawah Island Golf Resort
    PGA of America to Conduct 2021 PGA Championship on The Ocean Course at Kiawah Island Golf Resort KIAWAH ISLAND, S.C. (May 1, 2015) – The PGA of America announced today that it will conduct the 2021 PGA Championship on The Ocean Course at Kiawah Island Golf Resort. The 103rd edition of the Championship in August 2021 returns to the renowned Pete Dye-designed oceanfront layout in South Carolina after its first visit in 2012, when Rory McIlroy captured the Wanamaker Trophy by a record-setting margin. The Ocean Course is one of four venues to host each of the PGA of America’s major championships – the Ryder Cup (1991), the Senior PGA Championship presented by KitchenAid (2007) and the PGA Championship. The Ocean Course also hosted the 2005 PGA Professional National Championship. “Ever since The Ocean Course was introduced to the world, it has been a supreme test for the greatest players in golf,” said PGA of America President Derek Sprague. “From a down-to-the-last putt thriller of a Ryder Cup in 1991 to Rory McIlroy closing a record-setting performance in the 2012 PGA Championship, there has never been a shortage of thrills on The Ocean Course. We anticipate that tradition of excellence continuing in 2021 at the PGA Championship.” The PGA Championship also is the only one of golf’s four majors to be hosted in South Carolina. The announcement was made with Kiawah Island Golf Resort Chairman Bill Goodwin. “It’s an honor to have the PGA Championship returning to The Ocean Course and Kiawah Island,” said Goodwin.

  • MARK ROLFING Course Reporter
    MARK ROLFING Course Reporter Mark Rolfing rejoined the NBC Sports golf coverage team in October 1997 after eight years with ABC Sports. Rolfing works on NBC’s coverage of the PGA Tour, as well as events such as The Players Championship, U.S. Open, Ryder Cup and Presidents Cup. Rolfing, who began his commentating career at ESPN in 1986, joined NBC in 1988 for the network’s coverage of the Bob Hope Chrysler Classic. He worked as a course reporter and analyst on the NBC Golf Tour through the 1991 Ryder Cup at The Ocean Course in Kiawah Island, S.C. before departing for ABC. “Mark is an experienced course reporter who has developed great relationships with the players and caddies over the years,” said Tom Roy, Executive Producer, NBC Sports. “Mark does a nice job delivering the key information on club selection, course conditions and yardage. He’s also opinionated, which starts off interesting and entertaining conversations with Johnny Miller.” Golf World’s John Hawkins named Rolfing to his list of golf’s top television commentators. “He hustles, gets good information and isn’t afraid to voice an opinion,” wrote Hawkins. “The most important thing for me is to tell you, the viewer, something that you don’t know – something that I would know because I’m down there on the ground,” said Rolfing. “I try to find something that’s going to add to the enjoyment of the viewer.” Following a successful high school career, Rolfing played college golf at DePauw University in Greencastle, Ind., where he was conference champion.
