Brooks Koepka entered the week as the favorite to win the PGA Championship, and he's maintained that status despite trailing leader Haotong Li by two shots.
The two-time defending champion is priced at +400 to erase his deficit and become the first player to win three straight PGA Championships since 1927. He shot 2-under on Friday while battling a tight hip and receiving treatment several times.
Li isn't garnering much respect from oddsmakers, even with his two-shot edge. He's priced at +1400, giving him the sixth-shortest odds to win.
Daniel Berger, Jason Day, and Tommy Fleetwood are all at +900 as part of a six-way tie for second.
Here's the top of the betting board:
Player | Odds | To Par |
---|---|---|
Brooks Koepka | +450 | -6 |
Daniel Berger | +900 | -6 |
Jason Day | +900 | -6 |
Tommy Fleetwood | +900 | -6 |
Justin Rose | +1100 | -6 |
Haotong Li | +1400 | -8 |
Dustin Johnson | +1600 | -5 |
Xander Schauffele | +1600 | -4 |
Paul Casey | +2800 | -5 |
Brendon Todd | +3300 | -5 |
Bryson DeChambeau (2-under) and Rory McIlroy (1-under) are both +4000 to come from behind to win.
If you think Tiger Woods can erase an eight-shot hole to take his 16th major championship, betting on him would lead to a handsome return. Tiger's odds are +10000 to pull off the miracle comeback.
