The second of golf's four major championships gets underway next week as the PGA Championship moves to Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville, Kentucky. This is the fourth time the tournament will be played at Valhalla, following hosting duties in 1996, 2000 and 2014.
The last time the event was held at Valhalla, Rory McIlroy held off Phil Mickelson by one stroke and won his second Wanamaker Trophy. Mcllroy hasn't won a major championship since.
Scottie Scheffler, who is ranked No. 1 in the world and coming off his second victory at the Masters , is the overwhelming favorite to win at a tournament he finished in a tie for second place last year, and defending champion Brooks Koepka is attempting to become the fourth golfer to win at least four PGA Championship titles.
