The Tournament Contenders

The PGA Championship is one of the majors on the PGA Tour, and this week’s competition will be the 107^th edition of the famous event. Alongside the Open, Masters, and US Open, every professional golfer dreams of winning this tournament.

Schauffele was lucky enough to enjoy that winning feeling in 2024, beating compatriot Bryson DeChambeau by 1 stroke. The Californian heads to Quail Hollow Club at 19.00 to retain the crown.

The bookies are having a tough time splitting the world’s top two. Rory McIlroy and Scottie Scheffler are the joint favourites at 5.50.

McIlroy has been in great form in the first half of 2025, racking up three PGA Tour wins. Last month, the Northern Ireland ace won the Masters Tournament at Augusta.

In contrast, Scheffler has made a slow start to the 2025 season, though the world No. 1 did secure the CJ Cup Byron Nelson earlier in the month. It is extremely tough to call, but keep an eye on both players in North Carolina.

DeChambeau, who went so close last year, is the 9.00 third favourite behind the two big hitters. Elsewhere, you can get 17.00 for Justin Thomas to prevail, while Jon Rahm is available at 19.00.

Can Rory Claim a Third PGA Championship Victory?

Brooks Koepka has a sensational record in the PGA Championship, winning the major three times. After back-to-back victories in 2018 and 2019, the Florida-born star won the 2023 edition to make it a hat-trick.

Koepka saves his best golf for this event, but he is a big outsider this year, priced at 51.00 to come out on top. However, the 35-year-old is worth backing at 10.00 to secure a top-five finish.

As for the outright winner, we cannot look past McIlroy. The Brit is in the form of his life right now, and his Masters success in April could give him a psychological edge over his rivals.

McIlroy is a two-time PGA Championship winner, lifting the trophy in 2012 and 2014. Can he secure a third title 11 years after his last victory? McIlroy is available at 5.50 to win the 2025 edition at Quail Hollow.
