PGA Championship 2026 Odds for Sleepers and Favorites at Aronimink
Scottie Scheffler enters yet another major as the betting favorite.
Scheffler will try to defend his PGA Championship crown at Aronimink Golf Club outside of Philadelphia.
Scheffler sits at +440 (bet $100 to win $440) at FanDuel Sportsbook as of Monday morning.
Rory McIlroy, Cameron Young, Jon Rahm and Xander Schauffele are the only other golfers listed below +2000.
The PGA Championship has been won by may notable names in recent years, but there's still a chance that a sleeper deep on the odds board surprises us all and captures the season's second major.
Favorite: Scottie Scheffler (+440)
1 of 4
Scottie Scheffler enters Aronimink as the reigning PGA champion and off three straight top-five finishes.
It's hard to imagine Scheffler will be off the first page of the leaderboard come Sunday.
Scheffler's finished outside the top 20 in two of his nine starts this season. Even those finishes were 24th and 22nd, so it's not like he played terrible golf in those appearances.
The +440 price is incredibly low for any favorite at a golf tournament, but Scheffler demands that respect with his form.
Scheffler is on a run of six straight top-seven placings at majors and he's only been outside the top 10 twice at majors since the start of the 2023 campaign.
Favorite: Rory McIlroy (+850)
2 of 4
Rory McIlroy played significantly fewer events on the PGA Tour this season than Scheffler.
The Masters winner teed it up once after his win at Augusta. He finished in a tie for 19th at the Truist Championship this past week.
McIlroy shot a pair of 67s, but he also produced a 75 on Saturday that took him well away from the top of the leaderboard.
The PGA Championship as a whole hasn't been good to McIlroy since he took home since second Wanamaker Trophy in 2014. He has three top-10 finishes, four placings outside the top 30 and a missed cut from 2015-2025.
Of course, those results could mean nothing if McIlroy finds his form early on in the week at Aronimink.
McIlroy always has to be mentioned in the mix for the win, but he's a little less consistent than Scheffler typically is.
Sleeper: Rickie Fowler (+6000)
3 of 4
Rickie Fowler has barely been competitive on weekends of major tournaments recently, but a lot of things are aligning in his favor.
Fowler is coming off a second-place finish at the Truist Championship and currently ranks 17th in the FedEx Cup standings.
Fowler is second in strokes gained per round over the last 12 months, per Normal Sport's Kyle Porter. Only Bryson DeChambeau posted a better number during that stretch.
The 37-year-old owns a single top-10 major finish in the last four years, so it's easy to be skeptical of his game on the biggest stage.
However, the form suggests Fowler has a chance to be in contention at Aronimink.
Sleeper: Keegan Bradley (+10000)
4 of 4
Keegan Bradley won the only PGA Tour event held at Aronimink in the last decade.
Bradley won the 2018 BMW Championship with four rounds of 66 or lower and beat out Justin Rose in a playoff as part of the FedEx Cup playoffs.
The PGA Championship is held at different courses each year, but it is notable that Bradley's two best major finishes since 2024 have occurred at the PGA, including a tie for eighth in 2025.
Bradley found some form of late with a 21st-place finish at the Masters and two top-20 finishes after that.
He wasn't in contention to win at the Truist Championship last week, but he did record three rounds in the 60s. That's a good sign for the 39-year-old going into a major.
