PGA Championship weather updates: Latest Valhalla forecast news as rain delay threatens 2024 major

Some sports are played no matter the weather outside. Golf isn't among them.

Weather is always a hurdle when planning a major golf event. There's no controlling Mother Nature nor is there an indoor golf option like some MLB and NFL stadiums.

Sometimes, it just takes luck for a golf championship to avoid any delays or interruptions. The PGA Championship may need some of that good mojo this weekend in Louisville, Kentucky.

The annual tournament, which spans from May 16-19, is expected to feature rain and thunderstorms. Here's the latest updates and news on the weather for the 2024 PGA Championship.
