The 2021 PGA Championship is the forthcoming 103rd PGA Championship, scheduled for May 20–23 at Kiawah Island Golf Resort's Ocean Course in Kiawah Island, South Carolina. The defending champion is Collin Morikawa. It will be the second major championship at the Ocean Course; nine years earlier, the 2012 PGA Championship was won by Rory McIlroy.

- Players qualification criteria
The field for the PGA Championship is sometimes regarded as the strongest in professional golf, routinely having the highest "strength of field rating" of the year according to the Official World Golf Ranking. A number of qualification criteria are used to determine the field, which includes past PGA champions, recent major winners, top finishers in the 2020 PGA Championship, Ryder Cup players, tournament and leading money winners on the PGA Tour, and twenty PGA club or teaching professionals. The PGA of America also issue invitations to players outside of these criteria, which is generally seen to include the top one hundred in the world rankings.

This list details the qualification criteria for the 2021 PGA Championship and the players who qualified under them; any additional criteria under which players qualified is indicated in parentheses.

1. All past winners of the PGA Championship.

2. Recent winners of the Masters Tournament (2017–2021)

3. Recent winners of the U.S. Open (2016–2020)

4. Recent winners of The Open Championship (2015–2019)

5. Recent winners of The Players Championship (2019–2021)

6. The leading 15 players, and those tying for 15th place, in the 2020 PGA Championship

7. The leading 20 players in the 2021 PGA Professional Championship

8. The 70 leading PGA Championship Points* earners from the 2020 WGC-FedEx St. Jude Invitational (and Barracuda Championship) through the 2021 Wells Fargo Championship (May 9, 2021)

9. Playing members of the 2018 Ryder Cup teams, who are ranked within the top 100 on the Official World Golf Ranking as of May 9, 2021

10. Winners of official tournaments on the PGA Tour from the 2020 Wyndham Championship until the start of the championship

11. PGA of America invitees**

12. If necessary, the field is completed by players in order of PGA Championship points earned (per 8.)[6][3]

Alternates (per category 12):

  1. Tom Hoge (78th in standings) – replaced Wolff
* PGA Championship Points are based on official PGA Tour money earned

** The PGA of America usually invite all players ranked inside the top 100 of the Official World Golf Ranking. Twelve players with a world ranking of over 100 on May 9, 2021 were given invitations; ten of these had rankings between 101 and 122, while Schwartzel had a ranking of 157 and Stricker was ranked 233.

- Television coverage
ESPN and CBS have the media rights to the 2021 PGA Championship. This marks the second year of the media rights deal signed in October 2018, replacing the old deal with TNT and CBS. In the UK, Sky Sports will broadcast the event. This is the 31st consecutive PGA Championship on CBS Sports.

- Playoff format
If the two or three players tied for the lead after 72 holes, there will be a three-hole aggregate playoff. If either the two or three players still tied after the aggregate playoff, the champion will be decided into a sudden-death playoff hole.
