The Wanamaker Trophy

• Donor: Lewis Rodman Wanamaker, New York City, 1916
• Manufacturer: Dieges & Clust, New York City, 1916
• Weight: 34 pounds
• Height: 29 ¼ inches
• Diameter: 10 ½ inches
• Handle to handle: 27 inches
• About:
  • Lewis Rodman Wanamaker, benefactor of his namesake trophy, wanted the inaugural PGA Championship to be a grand display – from administration, participation, and the trophy itself. Wanamaker requested that the championship be modeled in 1916 after the highly successful match-play News of the World Tournament in the United Kingdom.
  • From Oct. 14, 1916, when it was first presented to inaugural PGA Champion Jim Barnes at Siwanoy Country Club in Bronxville, New York, the Rodman Wanamaker Trophy has undergone a series of restorations to its base and has no visible hallmarks.
  • From 1983 to 2002, Markham “Mark” Frankel, of MJF Silversmiths of Williamsburg, Virginia, designed 50% replica trophies for PGA Champions. He also made numerous repairs to the original and crafted a new base in 1984.
  • The original base was so filled with lead, according to Frankel, that it could not support the original trophy. The first 90% original-sized replica for PGA Champions began in 2009 with Y.E. Yang. From 2002 forward, the trophy silversmith has been John Bowles, of JB Fairway Presentations, Ltd., London.
  • Today, the champion’s name is engraved on site at the PGA Championship by Gail Hedgepeth of Gloucester Point, Virginia.
