PGA Championship Resale Tickets Fall Below $199 Face Value for All 4 Rounds

6 articles · Updated · Fox News · May 13

$170 Friday get-in prices on SeatGeek put every 2026 PGA Championship round below face value by Wednesday, despite the Aronimink event having sold out last July.
Face-value Championship+ tickets started at $199 for Thursday and reached $299 on the weekend before taxes and fees, leaving Saturday resale seats about $75 cheaper even before the full all-in gap widens.
Those tickets include grounds access plus unlimited concession visits for one entrée, one snack and one non-alcoholic drink each time, adding unusual value for a major sports event.
Roughly 200,000 spectators are expected for the week, but demand appears softer than buyers anticipated, with possible reasons including overestimated interest, limited local appetite and fans waiting out the secondary market.
