Which golf course hosted the 2006 PGA Championship won by Tiger Woods?
Answer
Medinah Country Club
Answer
Medinah Country Club
The 2006 PGA Championship was hosted by Medinah Country Club in Medinah, Illinois, and Tiger Woods won the tournament there. The championship was played from August 17 through 20 on Medinah's No. 3 Course, a demanding par-72 layout.
Woods finished at 18 under par, shooting 69, 68, 65, and 68 for a four-round total of 270. He defeated Shaun Micheel by five strokes. The victory was Woods' third PGA Championship and his 12th major championship. It also came only four weeks after his victory at the 2006 Open Championship.
Medinah was especially significant in Woods' career because he had also won the 1999 PGA Championship at the same club. His 2006 victory made him the first golfer to win the PGA Championship twice on one course. Whistling Straits hosted other PGA Championships, while Hazeltine National and Valhalla hosted different editions, making them plausible but incorrect alternatives for this event.
