PGA Championship 2024 early odds: Top picks and Tiger Woods prediction

The 2024 PGA Championship is set to begin on Thursday, May 16, at the Valhalla Golf Club. Ahead of the event, the organizers released the field for the event which is stacked. For the unversed, the Major championship will see some of the top players in the world, including Tiger Woods and 16 LIV golfers, compete for the top prize.

World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler is the most in-form player on the 2024 PGA Championship field. Unsurprisingly, he is also the outright favorite to win the Major.

Tiger Woods’ 2024 PGA Championship odds

Tiger Woods had a forgettable Masters outing. For the unversed, the ace golfer finished 60th at Augusta last month. Despite the disastrous result, the 48-year-old golfer seemed happy to finish the four-day event.

Notably, the Masters was his seventh start in the last two years after his infamous car crash in February 2021. Woods has only finished four of the tournaments he started since. Now, the ace golfer is set to make a big return to the playing field at the 2024 PGA Championship.

Woods will tee it up at Valhalla next weekend and he is a 125-1 longshot favorite for the Major. Several experts claim bigger results for the ace golfer. It is pertinent to note that Woods recently arrived in Valhalla and scouted the course. Notably, he seems to be in his fittest form since the accident.

The 15-time Major champion is currently the No. 801 player in the Official World Golf Ranking. It’ll be interesting to see if the former World No. 1 is able to gain some ranking spots after the PGA Championship outing.
