Rory McIlroy, Bryson DeChambeau and Scottie Scheffler are three of the top favorites to win the upcoming PGA Championship, the second major of the season.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Scottie Scheffler practically had the course to himself when he arrived a day early at the PGA Championship, a time to get reacquainted with Quail Hollow. He had played it only at the Presidents Cup in 2022 when the holes were a little out of order because of the format.

Off to a slow start by his standards after missing nearly two months because of a freak hand injury, Scheffler is starting to look like the top-ranked player he has been for the last two years.
