The 2026 PGA Championship is upon us as 156 players arrive at Aronimink Golf Club just outside Philadelphia to battle it out for the Wanamaker Trophy. Leading the field into Aronimink is last year's PGA champion, Scottie Scheffler, who will look to become just the third player to go back-to-back at the PGA of America's most notable event.

While Tiger Woods (twice) and Brooks Koepka are the only players to have previously defended their PGA Championships, Scheffler enters the week as a strong favorite once again, thanks in part to three straight runner-up finishes despite rough starts.

If Scheffler is going to lift the Wanamaker for a second straight year, he'll have to outlast a strong group of contenders headlined by Rory McIlroy, who is fresh off a second consecutive Masters victory. McIlroy has separated himself in the second spot on the odds sheet after picking up his sixth career major win at Augusta National, and with a win this week, he would crack the top 10 all-time in major championships.

The rest of the top contenders on the odds board are all searching for their first PGA Championship win. Cameron Young is the hottest player in golf; he will try to parlay his recent form into his first major win. Jon Rahm has won the U.S. Open and Masters but has yet to capture a Wanamaker. He and two-time U.S. Open winner Bryson DeChambeau are looking to put the noise of LIV Golf's current mess behind them for a week and prove they are still two of the game's best after each had a rough showing at the Masters.

Xander Schauffele and Matt Fitzpatrick are both looking to add to their major total amid strong seasons. Ludvig Åberg is another young star looking to affirm his talents on the major stage, while Tommy Fleetwood continues his pursuit of that elusive first major title.

The rest of the field is hoping to play spoiler to the favorites this week. That group includes the 20 club professionals who earned their way into the field, headlined by Michael Block making yet another start at the PGA Championship.

Check out the complete odds list for all 156 players in the PGA Championship field aiming to lift the Wanamaker Trophy on Sunday evening at Aronimink.
