PGA Championship final-round highlights posted

Aaron Rai’s winning Sunday at the 2026 PGA Championship moved quickly from live play into replay packages across the tournament’s official channels. The PGA Championship website posted a 5-minute, 10-second final-round highlights video on May 17 at 7:42 p.m. EDT, hours after Rai closed at 9-under at Aronimink Golf Club in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania. The PGA Tour’s video and audio hub added follow-up coverage on May 18, including a “The Five: Things to remember from PGA Championship” segment and multiple Rai interview clips. Golf Channel and CBS also carried player-specific and recap video from the final round, extending the tournament’s closing-day coverage into Monday. The new material gives viewers three layers of the finish: the official tournament highlight reel, player-focused clips such as Rory McIlroy’s round, and recap segments that revisited how the leaders handled Aronimink’s setup. (pgachampionship.com) Those packages arrived after Rai secured the Wanamaker Trophy with a final-round 65 for his first major title.

The PGA Championship website published “2026 PGA Championship Final Round Highlights” on May 17, and the same package appeared on the championship’s official YouTube channel. The site listing identifies the video length as 5:10 and timestamps the post at 7:42 p.m. EDT. (pgachampionship.com) The PGA Championship homepage also showed the final leaderboard alongside the video coverage. Aaron Rai finished first at 9-under, with Jon Rahm and Alex Smalley tied for second at 6-under. ### What did the closing highlights show from Aronimink? PGA Tour coverage of the final round said Rai reached 9-under with a 68-foot birdie putt on the 17th hole and followed that with a strong drive and approach on 18. (pgachampionship.com) The same live-updates report said Rai shot 65 on Sunday, his lowest score in a major championship. (pgachampionship.com) Golf Channel’s Monday page said Rai became the first English-born player in more than a century to win the PGA Championship and described his play at Nos. 15 and 16 as decisive in sealing the title. PGA Tour coverage said the birdie at the par-5 16th may have won him the championship before the long putt at 17 widened the margin. ### Which players were central to the post-round coverage? (pgatour.com) Jon Rahm, Rory McIlroy and Alex Smalley remained central names in the recap material after the finish. The official leaderboard listed Rahm and Smalley as Rai’s nearest pursuers, while McIlroy finished tied for seventh at 4-under. CBS posted a separate Rory McIlroy final-round highlights clip on May 17. (golfchannel.com) Golf Channel’s video lineup on May 18 included Rahm saying he knew “shots got away,” and McIlroy saying, “I’ll rue three holes today that I didn’t take advantage of.” ### What did the Monday recap packages focus on? The PGA Tour’s Monday video slate included “The Five: Things to remember from PGA Championship,” posted about six hours before the page was crawled. (pgachampionship.com) The page summary said the segment covered Rai’s path to victory, McIlroy’s inability to pressure the eventual champion and Scottie Scheffler’s struggles with the putter. (youtube.com) Golf Channel also posted a segment describing Aronimink as “punitive,” signaling that course setup and hole management were part of the post-round discussion. That matched the final-round reporting from PGA Tour writers, who said the course presented a brutal test and shaped the Sunday finish. ### Where can viewers find the replay coverage now? The PGA Championship’s official site and YouTube channel carry the tournament-produced final-round package. (pgatour.com) The PGA Tour watch page carries recap videos, interviews and feature segments tied to the championship, while Golf Channel and CBS host additional player-specific clips and analysis. (golfchannel.com) May 18 coverage remained focused on Rai’s victory at Aronimink and on the final-day runs from Rahm, Smalley and McIlroy. The next tournament videos on those platforms are expected to shift to the PGA Tour’s upcoming weekly events, but the PGA Championship replay packages were still live on Monday.
