It's major week again. This time we're taking our talents to Oak Hill, near Rochester, NY, for the 105th playing of the PGA Championship. This course hosted the tournament all the way back in 2013, when Jason 'Duf Daddy' Dufner outdueled Jim Furyk to take the title. Those with good enough memories, like myself, still wake up in a cold sweat some nights thinking about how Dufner put up a generationally-dreadful performance that week on putts within 2 feet of the hole, yet still managed to claim victory.

Unlike at Augusta, there is no longer a three-headed monster at the top of the board. Rory McIlroy has had an uneventful April and May, to say the least, and now Scottie Scheffler and Jon Rahm reign supreme amongst oddsmakers. Data Golf has them as the clear best players in the world right now, with Xander Schauffele, Pat Cantlay, and Big Tony Finau rounding out their top 5.
No Tiger this week - he's recovering from his ankle surgery. Will Phil the Thrill show out for the second straight major in his place? Will the LIV boys improve upon their impressive showing at the Masters? Is Jordan Spieth's wrist injured enough to derail his attempt at the career grand slam? All these questions and more will be solved come Sunday night.
