Scottie Scheffler, the world’s No. 1, is the +480 favorite to win the 2026 PGA Championship at Aronimink, aiming to become the first back-to-back PGA winner since Brooks Koepka (2018-19). Tiger Woods isn’t in the field. The top contenders include Rory McIlroy (+850), Cameron Young (+1200), Jon Rahm (+1500) and Ludvig Åberg (+1800).

Odds listed are from FanDuel and cover a wide field, with Bearman noting a high-variance strategy and suggesting one 60+‑1 candidate plus two triple-digit longshots among his bets.
