The second major tournament of the 2023 season is upon us. The PGA Championship is finally here, so let's take a look at the latest tournament information, odds, picks and more!

2023 PGA Championship Dates: May 18-21
Course: Oak Hill Country Club in Rochester, New York

Recapping last year

Justin Thomas is the defending champion, winning the 2022 PGA Championship at Southern Hills Country Club in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The win didn't come easy for Thomas as he and Will Zalatoris each shot 5-under par through the first 72 holes, invoking a three-hole playoff to determine the champion. Thomas shot 2-under par in three holes to win the tournament.

Mito Pereira and Cameron Young finished one stroke behind Thomas and Zalatoris, with each shooting 4-under par to barely miss making the playoff. Matt Fitzpatrick, Tommy Fleetwood and Chris Kirk each shot 3-under par to tie for fifth, while Rory McIlroy shot 2-under to finish eighth.

Prior PGA Championships at Oak Hill

This will be the fourth PGA Championship held at Oak Hill and the first since 2013. Jason Dufner won the tournament that year, shooting 10-under-par 270 over the four rounds.

Who are the PGA Championship favorites?

Jon Rahm (+700) is the favorite to win the PGA Championship at FOX Bet. Rahm just won his second major tournament, The Masters, in April. Scottie Scheffler (+850) and Rory McIlroy (+1000) have the second- and third-best odds to win the tournament, respectively.

What about Tiger Woods?

Tiger Woods will not be playing in the PGA Championship. The 15-time major winner pulled out of the tournament on May 10. Woods had surgery on his right ankle on April 19, just over a week after the Masters, causing him to sit out as he heals from the injury.

Before pulling out of the tournament, Woods was a long shot to win the PGA Championship. He opened at +12500 to win the tournament at FOX Bet.
