PGA Tour - 2. 01. Live stream, free, Championship, Tee Times, Leaderboard, Watch online. The 9. 9th PGA Championship at Quail Hollow is loaded with hype and the potential for history. Here are some picks and predictions for the weekend in Charlotte. The final men’s major championship of the year is here, and it’s the most hyped it’s been in a long time. The PGA Championship got a huge boost when Jordan Spieth won the Claret Jug less than three weeks ago, setting the stage for potential history at Quail Hollow. Spieth can become the youngest ever to complete the career slam.

But we’re at a course where maybe his contemporary rival and challenger for the next two decades, Rory Mc. Ilroy, has feasted and is the favorite. It has all set up an incredible dynamic that is just a part of the 9. PGA. Here are some picks, predictions, and points to watch for this week in Charlotte. Jordan Spieth stopped the streak of first- time major winners. But there’s still a loaded crop waiting to breakthrough. Who are some of the top candidates to get their first major this week?
Emily: Rickie Fowler and Hideki Matsuyama are the obvious candidates, with a bit of Matt Kuchar sprinkled into the mix. Sadly for them, they’ll all walk away from Quail Hollow with the “best golfers without a major” label still intact. Brendan: We’ve gotten caught up a bit in the Spieth vs. Rory hype over the last two weeks and neglected some of the potential first- timers who fit this course perfectly. Fowler doesn’t have quite the track record of Mc. Ilroy, but as Kyle pointed out yesterday in his power rankings, it’s pretty dang good. And the same goes for Matsuyama, who just burned Firestone to the ground with a Sunday 6.
That kind of tee- to- green game that sets up for Firestone will play well here too (it plays well everywhere, of course, the advantage just might be greater at a setup like this). These two have as good a chance to win this week as Mc. Ilroy and Spieth.

Kyle: I think we’re all in agreement that Fowler & Matsuyama are the low- hanging fruit here, so let’s reach a bit higher on the tree — but not much. I want to toss Thomas Pieters name in here. He’s got all the game in the world and that’s perfect here, but I think he’s still a bit green on the big stage. We’ve seen some nervy play at the Olympics, Masters, and last week at Firestone when contending in big events on the weekend. Sometimes you have to walk before you run, and sometimes you have to win a WGC or a Rolex event before we talk major championship. I really, really like Justin Thomas in theory here at Quail. He’s the quintessential American player for the American game — big drives, hits it miles in the air — and I think we’re set to favor those type of players this week.

It’s gonna be wet, it’s gonna be long. Perfect conditions to boom it and stick it. JT seems built to win a PGA, and perhaps it’s this one. Who is your darkhorse pick to win, or just contend (ideally odds 6. Brendan: The PGA, in theory, is the hardest major to win. You have the full top 1. The Masters field isn’t even 1.
The two Opens also have large chunks of their field reserved for qualifiers and other longshots or unexpected entrants. The PGA ensures everyone that’s at the top of the game is in the field, so there’s so many “darkhorse” picks with great value down the board. Tony Finau at 1. 00/1 is good value, given his strokes gained off- the- tee advantage. Kevin Chappell, at 8. There’s just a lot to like with longer odds but I’ll give you just those two for fear of becoming one of those guys that rattles off an enormous list of names so they can say “they had that one” after the fact. That’s a scourge these days.
Kyle: Yeah, there’s a ton to like on down the board here. There’s a reason I think this is golf’s best major championship. It’s a deep field as Brendan said, and it’s often on the best setup. If you parse through all the sanctimony of the other three majors and just want to see a really quality championship, here’s often the best place to look.
I’ll admit that wasn’t the case last year). I like bold picks, so I’ll give you two young names both with triple- digit odds to win: Xander Schauffele (1. Patrick Rodgers (2. I’m all in on Schauffele after strong finishes at the last two majors, he bombs it, and should be your PGA Tour Rookie of the Year. As for Rodgers, we’re probably overdue to have him contend in a major.
His professional career hasn’t yet materialized like his record- setting collegiate days at Stanford, but a T- 2 here in 2. Rory should give you some optimism if you’re looking waaaaay down the board for good value. I don’t know if either win, but I think both are solid bets to contend here. Emily: Ian Poulter (8. Brian Gay helped him keep his PGA Tour card for the season.
He won’t win this week and will have to rid himself of memories of his T- 6. Wells Fargo Championship at Quail Hollow, but he did have a T- 5 on the Charlotte track in 2.
Or not. Which big name, or names, are the best candidates to disappoint and exit before the weekend? Emily: Bubba Watson. The two- time Masters champ is having a down season and teeing it up at Quail Hollow — where he posted his third of three missed cuts the last time around the Charlotte track in 2. But, hey, in a season of caddie musical chairs, he and Ted Scott are still a team so he has that going for him.
What do you expect from Quail Hollow, a PGA Tour venue during the regular season, as a major championship setup? Brendan: I think Quail Hollow will work out fine as a major championship test, although we’ve heard some slight grumbling already about some of the Tom Fazio- redesigned holes on the front nine. For the most part, the players seem diplomatic about the changes. And it’s a course they have loved as a regular stop on the PGA Tour schedule. What may be dissatisfying to the TV viewer or the architecture nerd is not necessarily the view on the ground among those playing these courses at the highest levels. The PGA has provided some of the best major championship drama of the past five years. Is the PGA still the fourth major?
If last, why? Will a schedule change do anything for the PGA’s identity or prestige? Kyle: No. God no. Absolutely not. The schedule change is a horrible move that robs the PGA of any identity it had in the first place. Consider where the PGA’s been played, historically: the Midwest and Northeast. The championship’s iconic venues that have provided excellent championships are all in cold- weather locales.
Hazeltine in Minnesota. Medinah in Chicago. Baltusrol in New Jersey. Whistling Straights in Wisconsin. Oak Hill in upstate New York.
Valhalla in Louisville. Oakland Hills in Detroit. Sure, sure — weather is decent in May in many of those places, but the months leading up are what create the concern. You can’t prep a course for a major in March and April in cold temperatures, and it’s a strong possibility those great tracks are all axed from the rota.
What does that mean? More pro golf in areas that are already over- saturated with Tour stops: the Southeast, California, and perhaps Texas. No thanks! Emily: Scheduling the event in May rather than August could give the event some momentum and may change the perception that the PGA is the little brother of the three other majors. This year, coming just three weeks after the British Open and seven days after the Women’s British Open, the PGA is most definitely the fourth major and reeks of majors overload.
Brendan: I’ve heard several persuasive arguments for why this schedule reshuffling is good for golf and different golf organizations. I’ve yet to hear a really compelling one for why it’s good for the PGA, which is, you know, the one event making the biggest move. I think the PGA Tour is a huge winner here, getting The Players back to March and now having all of August to get their Fed.
Ex. Cup Playoffs done before football owns the sports landscape. I thought the PGA was an underrated and great major and perfectly suited for August, when there’s little competition.
