Early Favorites and Odds for the 2025 PGA Championship

Golf

Anticipation is building for the next major championship in golf, the PGA Championship, which will be held at Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, North Carolina. All eyes will be on the field to see who emerges victorious at this prestigious event.

Unsurprisingly, the early betting favorites are Scottie Scheffler (+440) and Rory McIlroy (+450). While Scheffler`s season started somewhat slowly, he recently found winning form by securing his first PGA Tour victory of the year at the CJ Cup. This recent success could provide the momentum he needs to top the leaderboard at Quail Hollow. To fully prepare for the major, Scheffler is reportedly skipping the Truist Championship the week prior.

Meanwhile, Rory McIlroy is coming off a significant win, having finally earned his first Green Jacket at the Masters, completing his career Grand Slam. A triumph at Quail Hollow would mark the next significant step in his pursuit of completing the modern Grand Slam within a single calendar year, adding another layer of excitement to his challenge.

Defending PGA Championship winner Xander Schauffele (+1800) is back and looking to repeat his performance. Other prominent players listed among the top favorites include Bryson DeChambeau (+1200), Ludvig Åberg (+1600), and Collin Morikawa (+1800), setting the stage for a highly competitive tournament.

The first round of the 2025 PGA Championship is scheduled to tee off on Thursday, May 15th.
