The Top Five Favorites

Dustin Johnson

The world No. 1 could use a strong performance here after a missed cut and a T48 finish in the Wells Fargo Championship over his last three events. Since winning last year’s Masters, Johnson has only one Top-10 finish.

Justin Thomas

The world No. 2 won The PLAYERS Championship in March and has recorded three consecutive finishes of T26 or better in his last three outings. Thomas ranks first in birdie average (4.80) and third in scoring average (69.744).

Bryson DeChambeau

The world No. 4 won the Arnold Palmer Invitational in March and finished T3 in The PLAYERS Championship. DeChambeau finished T9 at last week’s Wells Fargo Championship and ranks first in scoring average (69.668) and first in eagles (62.2)

Jon Rahm

The world No. 3 missed the cut in last week’s Wells Fargo Championship, but recorded a T5 finish in the Masters and seventh place finish in New Orleans just prior to that. Rahm ranks fifth in greens-in-regulation and ninth in scoring average (69.960).

Brooks Koepka

Koepka missed the cut in the Masters, but finished T2 just prior to that in the WGC-Workday Championship just prior to that and won the Waste Management Open in February. Koepka won the PGA Championship title in 2018 and 2019. and ranks 14th in birdie average (4.38).

Xander Schauffele

Schauffele finished an impressive T3 in the Masters in April, T 11 in New Orleans after that and T14 in the Wells Fargo Championship last weekend. Schauffele ranks fifth in eagles, fourth in birdies (4.63) and fourth in scoring average (69.775). In four PGA Championship appearances, Schauffele has gotten better each time out and will look to improve on consecutive finishes of T16 and last year’s T10.

Jordan Spieth

28th in the Official Golf World Rankings, Spieth is playing excellent golf right now. The two-time major winner has three Top-5 finishes in his last five outings and four Top-10 finishes and one win in the Valero Open. Spieth has a stellar five Top-10 finishes in his last eight outings. Spieth ranks 11th in birdie average (4.42).

Rory McIlroy

McIlroy went 553 days between wins before claiming the Wells Fargo Championship last weekend. Now, McIlroy has his eyes on his third win at the 2021 PGA Championship. McIlroy has two missed cuts in his last four tournaments, but three Top-10 finishes in his last six outings. The Irishman ranks sixth in birdie average (4.50) and second in driving distance (318.8).

Collin Morikawa

Sixth in the Official Golf World Rankings, Morikawa is the defending champion. In 14 events this season, the 24-year-old has made the cut 11 times while recording six Top-25 finishes, four Top-10 finishes and one win in February at the WGC-Workday Championship. The California native should be quite hungry too after some uneven play over his last five outings, including a missed cut in the Zurich Classic of New Orleans last weekend. Morikawa did finish T7 just prior to that at the RBC Heritage and he’s got the game to beat anyone on the planet every time he takes to the links.

Hideki Matsuyama

In eight career PGA Championship appearances, Matsuyama has made the cut all eight times. The 2021 Masters winner finished fifth in 2015, T7 in 2016, T11 a year after that, 19th in 2018, T16 in 2019 and T22 a year ago. Six consecutive Top-25 finishes tells me Matsuyma could very well break into the winner’s circle in 2021 to win consecutive majors.
