The Shawnee Inn & Golf Resort’s Brian Bergstol Qualifies for 2025 PGA Championship
Shawnee on Delaware, PA – May 1, 2025
The Shawnee Inn and Golf Resort proudly announces that Assistant Golf Professional Brian Bergstol has secured his place in the 2025 PGA Championship, following a stellar performance at the PGA Professional Championship. Bergstol finished tied for 3rd, earning a coveted spot in the prestigious event to be held at Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, North Carolina, from May 12–18, 2025.
Bergstol’s journey to this achievement is marked by a series of notable accomplishments. In 2022, he captured the 101st Philadelphia PGA Professional Championship, demonstrating resilience and skill by overcoming a five-stroke deficit in the final round. His remarkable comeback included a memorable 156-yard hole-out for par on the 10th hole, propelling him to a two-stroke victory.
Continuing his impressive form, Bergstol clinched the 2023 Jack Jolly & Son Championship with a 5-under-par 66, and later that year, he triumphed at the 25th Haverford Philadelphia PGA Classic, securing the largest first-place prize in any PGA of America Section event.
Bergstol’s dedication to the sport extends beyond his personal achievements. As a long-standing member of the Shawnee Inn family, he has been instrumental in mentoring aspiring golfers, many of whom have achieved significant success under his guidance.
This will mark Bergstol’s second appearance in a major championship, having previously qualified for the 2008 U.S. Open at Torrey Pines, making him the first Shawnee professional since Sam Snead to compete at that level.
The Shawnee Inn and Golf Resort celebrates Brian Bergstol’s accomplishments and looks forward to supporting him as he represents our community on golf’s grand stage.
