The 2014 BMW PGA Championship was the 60th edition of the BMW PGA Championship, an annual golf tournament on the European Tour, held 22–25 May at the West Course of Wentworth Club in Virginia Water, Surrey, England, a suburb southwest of London.

Seven strokes back after three rounds, Rory McIlroy won with a final round 66 (−6), a stroke ahead of runner-up Shane Lowry.[3] It was his first win at the event, and sixth victory on the European Tour.[4][5] Thomas Bjørn led (or co-led) after each or the first three rounds, but fell into a tie for third after a final round 75 (+3).[3][6]

Defending champion Matteo Manassero opened with an 80 and missed the cut by five strokes.
