67-year-old Bernhard Langer reveals 3 reasons why he continues to play PGA Tour Champions

Bernhard Langer enters the 2025 PGA Tour Champions season fresh off two victories at the end of 2024.

The two-time Masters winner holed a 40-footer on the 18th hole to win the Charles Schwab Cup Championship in November for the first time in his career, capping off an injury-plagued season that saw him tear his Achilles in February of last year. He and his son Jason then defeated Tiger and Charlie Woods in a playoff at the PNC Championship in December.

Now Langer is at the Mitsubishi Electric Championship at Hualalai, beginning his 19th season on the PGA Tour Champions. He can still compete at the highest level and revealed why he still does so earlier this week:

“I said many years ago three things have to be in place: I need to be healthy, I’ve got to have fun, enjoyment doing this, and probably be in contention,” Langer said when asked about competing on the PGA Tour Champions.

“If those three things are there, there’s no need to quit. If one or two of those leave me for whatever reason, it’s time to think about it.”

Langer added that he is “unsure” of when he will hang it up for good.

But he still has a strong desire to win in 2025.

“It would be great to win one or two more times and just stay in contention as often as possible,” Langer said of his season-long goals.

“The goal is to stay healthy because when you’re healthy, you can work on your game and swing the way you want to. If you’re not, things are very difficult.”
