Among other storylines at the 2024 PGA Championship, Tiger Woods (+3000) will compete for the first time since making the cut at the Masters earlier this year and will work through lingering injuries while playing in his 23rd PGA Championship. His most recent appearance at the tournament, in 2022, saw him withdraw after the third round, when he carded a 9-over 79, the worst round of his career at the PGA Championship. At the time, it was just the second golf event he had participated in since suffering serious leg injuries from a car wreck in February of 2021.
Jordan Spieth (+6500) is another storyline to watch at this year's PGA Championship, as he tries to complete a career grand slam. If the 30-year-old can pull off a victory, it will end a two-year drought on the PGA Tour, with his last win coming in April 2022 at the RBC Heritage.
