Five weeks ago, Scottie Scheffler was victorious at the first major golf tournament of the year, claiming his second career victory at the Masters Tournament. Now, the No. 1-ranked golfer in the world has his sights set on the next major tourney: this week's PGA Championship.
The 2024 edition of the PGA Tournament is set to begin Thursday at Valhalla Golf Course in Louisville, Kentucky. It marks the fourth time the course has hosted the event, and the first since 2014, when Rory McIlroy was victorious.
McIlroy will likely be among the front-runners again this year. But so should Scheffler, who has never won the PGA Championship but finished second to Brooks Koepka when the tournament was held at Oak Hill Country Club in 2023.
