The second major championship of the year is upon us, with the PGA Championship hosting the worlds best at famed Oak Hill Country Club. Jon Rahm, who won the Masters last month, comes in rested and is installed as the favorite to win his third career. Scottie Scheffler, who won the green jacket at Augusta National in 2022, has slightly longer odds than the Spaniard.
Oak Hill Country Club had a restoration a few years ago, so this will play differently from when it last hosted the PGA in 2013, won by Jason Dufner. The defending champion is Justin Thomas, who has two Wanamaker Trophies to his credit. Tiger Woods is not among those competing this week. Jordan Spieth is set to tee it up after withdrawing from last week’s AT&T Byron Nelson. Should Spieth win the PGA, he’d become just the sixth man to achieve the career grand slam.

The betting favorite in the 2023 PGA Championship odds is Jon Rahm (four wins this season), and right behind him is Scottie Scheffler, who has picked up a pair of victories. Rory McIlroy is the third choice, despite missing the cut at the Masters. Past winner Jason Day snapped a five-year winless drought at the Byron Nelson on Sunday, so he comes in with a lot of confidence.

2023 PGA Championship Picks and Value Bets
- Viktor Hovland (+2800): Viktor Hovland has been getting closer and closer to picking off a big title in his young career. Last summer he was in the final group on Sunday at the Open Championship, where he finished T-4th. Then he was T-3rd at the Players Championship this year, and T-7th at the Masters, where he was in the penultimate group in the last round. Hovland has been strong of late, ranking third in ball striking and SG: off-the-tee in his last 24 times teeing it up.
- Tyrrell Hatton (+3500): In twelve starts on the PGA Tour this season, Tyrrell Hatton has racked up five top-10’s. That includes his last two starts, which resulted in a tie for third at the Wells Fargo and a tie for fifth at the AT&T Byron Nelson. On the campaign, the Englishmen is fifth in total strokes gained and sixth in SG: tee-to-green.
- Rickie Fowler (+7500): Rickie Fowler can look at AT&T Byron Nelson champion Jason Day as inspiration. Both have had a career rebirth this season, with Fowler stringing together several solid results. He’s had top-20’s in eight of nine starts, with the other finish being T-31st. In the last 24 rounds he’s eleventh in total strokes gained. Fowler will be interesting to monitor in the top 10/20 markets. He’s had three career top-10’s at the PGA.
