FRISCO, Texas (May 8, 2024) ー The PGA of America and William Hill Estate Winery today announced a multi-year partnership appointing William Hill the “Official Wine” and official supplier for both the PGA of America and the PGA Championship through 2026. 

Hospitality areas throughout Valhalla Golf Club, site of the 106th PGA Championship, May 13-19, will offer numerous selections from William Hill’s wine offerings. Additionally, spectators can enjoy William Hill’s Estate California Chardonnay at general concession pouring bars.

The William Hill Wine Lounge, a branded pouring bar located in PGA Plaza along the fairway of the par-5 10th hole at Valhalla, is the perfect spot for spectators looking to enjoy a refreshing glass of wine without missing any of the golf.

Spectators can order from William Hill’s well-crafted portfolio of wines while relaxing in the lounge area and viewing all of the action taking place inside the ropes. William Hill’s California Chardonnay, California Cabernet Sauvignon and California Sauvignon Blanc will be available.

To further extend the partnership to those who may not be able to make it to Valhalla for this year’s PGA Championship, William Hill is sharing an experience of a lifetime for a lucky fan and a guest to win two tickets and travel to the 2025 PGA Championship at Quail Hollow.
