2021 PGA Championship Winner and Scores

The 2021 PGA Championship was the 103rd time this tournament was played, but it produced a first: Phil Mickelson became the first golfer at least 50 years old to win a major championship.

Winner: Phil Mickelson, 282

Where it was played: Kiawah Island Golf Resort (The Ocean Course) in Kiawah Island, South Carolina

Tournament dates: May 20-23, 2021

Leader after first round: Corey Conners, 67

Leaders after second round: Phil Mickelson and Louis Oosthuizen, 138

Leader after third round: Phil Mickelson, 209

Notable notes: 50-year-old Phil Mickelson took a one-stroke lead into the final round, then held on for the two-stroke victory over runners-up Louis Oosthuizen and Brooks Koepka. Mickelson and Koepka had roller-coaster starts in the final round and traded the lead a couple times on the front nine through birdies and bogeys. But Mickelson started the back nine with a birdie on the 10th hole and added another on the 16th that produced a three-shot cushion.

It was Mickelson's 45th career PGA Tour win, but first since 2019. It was his sixth major championship win, but first since 2013. He broke a record held since 1968 by Julius Boros for oldest major championship winner, becoming the first golfer older than 48 to win a men's major.
