Rory McIlroy's 2024 PGA Championship Chances Hyped by Golf Fans After Wells Fargo Win

Rory McIlroy has notched his second PGA Tour win of the 2024 season.

After winning the Zurich Classic of New Orleans in April, McIlroy followed up the outstanding performance with a win at the Wells Fargo Championship on Sunday.

McIlroy finished 17 under par on Sunday at Quail Hollow in North Carolina to beat Xander Schauffele, who finished 12 under par. McIlroy carded a six-under 65 to round out his weekend.

With McIlroy rounding into peak form, fans are liking his chances at next week's PGA Championship at Valhalla Golf Club.

McIlroy has won a pair of PGA Championships, but his last came in 2014. He's heating up at the right time, and it could lead to his first major win in a decade.

The last time McIlroy won a major, the PGA Championship in 2014, he had won the week before, and the 35-year-old admitted he feels like things are setting up in his favor this time around.

"Going to a venue next week where I've won, it feels like the stars are aligning a little bit," McIlroy told CBS' Amanda Balionis. "But I've got a lot of golf to play and a lot of great players to try to beat next week. But going into the next major of the year feeling really good about myself."

The PGA Championship will tee off on May 16 at Valhalla in Louisville, Kentucky.
