How to play the PGA Championship winners timeline

This deck collects winners of the PGA Championship, and you place each golfer by the year they first won it. Underneath is a note about how, where or whom they beat. One champion starts on the timeline with their year visible. Put every new golfer in a gap among those already down. A correct pick shows the year, and a miss still sends the golfer to their real position and costs one of three lives.

Some notes mention the format, the course or a playoff opponent, and those details are your best anchors. Multiple winners count only once, so a golfer who won it repeatedly is placed by the earliest title rather than the one you remember. The deck covers the championship's whole history, and lesser-known champions with short, plain notes are the cards most likely to cost you.

Want a longer game? On the deck tree you can tick this deck alongside any other one measured in release years and dates, and they shuffle into a single timeline together.
