Meet the PGA of America Golf Professionals Playing in the Senior PGA Championship

The 2025 Senior PGA Championship gets underway on May 22 from Congressional Country Club in Bethesda, Maryland, and will promised to deliver another exciting chapter for the oldest major in senior golf.

Similar to the PGA Championship last week and the upcoming KPMG Women's PGA Championship, the Senior PGA will feature PGA of America Golf Professionals competing alongside the world's best. Led by 2024 Senior PGA Professional Champion Alan Morin, 36 in all from across the country make up this year's Corebridge Financial Team, and if history is any indication, they're looking to get their hands on the Alfred S. Bourne Trophy.

Last year as part of the team, Jason Caron finished T-4, the lowest since 2002 when Roy Vucinich finished T-4, and in 2021, Bob Sowards finished T-5. Who will look to replicate those performances this year?
