Rory McIlroy enters this year’s PGA Championship as favourite at 4/1 alongside the likes of Scottie Scheffler due to the fact that he is entering this competition off the back of winning the Masters in 2025, as well as the fact that the Northern Irishman has an excellent record in Charlotte.
Jordan Spieth jokingly named Quail Hollow as the “Rory McIlroy Country Club” and it is easy to see why, as the 36-year-old has won four titles at this venue and will be aiming to repeat the PGA Championship victories that he managed back in 2012 and 2014.
12 months ago, Rory McIlroy managed to beat reigning PGA Championship holder Xander Schauffele by a staggering four shots at Quail Hollow during his most recent victory here, showing just how confident he’ll be of earning another victory at this course.
