The 2024 PGA Championship is officially underway with Round 1 in progress at Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville, Kentucky.
Tiger Woods teed off early this morning along with Keegan Bradley and Adam Scott. Woods, 48, has won the PGA Championship four times (1999, 2000, 2006, 2007). Due to injuries, the last time he played the PGA Championship was 2022 in Tulsa, where he withdrew after shooting a 9-over 79 in the third round.
Scottie Scheffler enters as the No. 1 player in the world and as winner of the year’s first major championship at the Masters. He has won three other times in 2024 (RBC Heritage, The Players Championship and Arnold Palmer Invitational). Scheffler tees off at 2:13 p.m. alongside Brian Harman and Wyndham Clark.
