After the thrill of Rory McIlroy’s Masters win which completed his Grand Slam of Majors, there are storylines aplenty at this week’s PGA Championship.
Can Rory win back-to-back Majors and keep himself in the running for a calendar Grand Slam? Not even Tiger Woods managed that.
Will Scottie Scheffler return to dominance again and claim a third Major after ending his 2025 drought with a hugely impressive victory in the CJ CUP Byron Nelson last time?
And how about Jordan Spieth? This is the Major he needs to complete his own Grand Slam after previous wins at The Masters, US Open and Open Championship.
And so it goes on.
McIlroy has joined Scheffler at the top of the betting market and that’s due to the Northern Irishman’s stunning course form at Quail Hollow in North Carolina.
He’s won four times there when the Charlotte course hosted the annual Wells Fargo Championship and all those were in May.
Quail Hollow also staged the 2017 PGA Championship won by Justin Thomas.
However, that was back when the tournament was held in August and the course was firm and fast.
It’s much softer this time after persistent rain in the build-up so an already lengthy course looks set to play super-long.
American golfers have won the last nine editions of this event while eight of the last 10 winners had already posted a top 10 in the PGA.
Year | Champion, nationality, winning score and venue |
---|---|
2024 | Xander Schauffele (United States) -21 (Valhalla) |
2023 | Brooks Koepka (United States) -9 (Oak Hill) |
2022 | Justin Thomas (United States) -5 (Southern Hills) |
2021 | Phil Mickelson (United States) -6 (Kiawah Island) |
2020 | Collin Morikawa (United States) -13 (Harding Park) |
The course was designed by George Cobb in 1961
Tom Fazio undertook a restoration in 1997
Justin Thomas won with 8-under when Quail Hollow staged the 2017 PGA
The course this year is a par 71 measuring 7,626 yards from the tips
Xander Schauffele holds the 72-hole PGA record (263, Valhalla 2024)
Schauffele also holds the PGA’s 18-hole record of 62 with Shane Lowry
After a hand injury delayed his start to the season, Scheffler was banking good finishes and fourth in defence of his Masters crown was a fine effort but where was the victory? The answer, emphatically, came in the CJ CUP Byron Nelson when he opened with 61 and romped to an eight-shot win - the biggest margin of his PGA TOUR career. This is his first start since. The main doubt now is that he’s never played an individual strokeplay event at Quail Hollow and the World No.1 didn’t win a single match there when it staged the 2022 Presidents Cup.

McIlroy couldn’t have picked a better course to try and follow up his Masters win and claim a sixth Major title. This was the scene of his first PGA TOUR win in 2010 when he came from the cutline to shoot 66-62 on the weekend and win by four. He’s added three more victories at Quail Hollow (2015, 2021 and 2024) while adding a further five top 10s so this really is his playground. Since his epic Masters success, the Northern Irishman has finished 12th in the Zurich Classic pairs event and seventh in last week’s Truist Championship. He’s won this event twice but not for 11 years.

It’s not common to find three players south of 10/1 in any event but that’s the case here thanks to the strong claims of DeChambeau. Like Scheffler, he was winless in 2025 prior to The Masters but after his fifth place at Augusta he won the LIV Korea event. The current US Open champion also has a great record in this tournament as revealed below…

Yep, DeChambeau is going to be the headline tip to win this week.
The 31-year-old has already won two US Opens (2020 Winged Foot and 2024 Pinehurst No.2) while he’s gone close in this event too.
Last year he was runner-up to Schauffele at Valhalla, shooting 20-under but losing out by a shot.
And in two of his previous three starts in the event, he placed fourth.
DeChambeau has shown a fondness for Quail Hollow with fourth and ninth in his last two Wells Fargo starts and the soft conditions should absolutely play into his big-hitting hands this week.
Right at the peak of his powers, back him at +800 with bet365 to land a third Major title.

Corey Conners has plenty in his favor here and I’ll back him at -115 with bet365 to beat Russell Henley in a 72-hole match bet.
Henley is one of the shortest hitters on tour so could struggle in this week’s soft conditions despite some good performances this year.
But this is more of a pro Conners bet.
The Canadian easily beat Henley in last week’s Truist Championship (11th v 46th) and, despite not being a big hitter, Conners has an excellent record on tracks measuring over 7,500 yards.
That includes this one where he’s posted 13th and 8th in the last two editions of the Wells Fargo.
Conners was eighth at Augusta last month (Henley MC) and his elite off-the-tee game should pave the way to win this head-to-head.

Strong driving will be rewarded this week and that brings Tyrrell Hatton into the crosshairs.
The Englishman has a couple of T10s in this event already and a further pair of top 15s in two of the last three.
Also 14th at The Masters last month, Hatton was third at Quail Hollow when he last played the Wells Fargo in 2023.
A classy operator with plenty of solid LIV form (13-5 in two -post Masters starts), Hatton can bank a top 10 at +400 with bet365.
