Aaron Rai produced a stunning final-round charge Sunday to win the PGA Championship, becoming the first English-born player in more than a century to lift the Wanamaker Trophy.

Rai, once a boy who dreamed of becoming a Formula 1 driver before choosing golf, began the decisive stretch three shots off the lead at Aronimink Golf Club. But the 31-year-old delivered one brilliant moment after another, closing with a 5-under 65 to finish at 9-under 271.

“To be here is outside my wildest imagination,” Rai said.

His round turned on the par-5 ninth, where he holed a 40-foot eagle putt during a run of seven straight one-putt greens. That surge carried him into contention, and he never looked back. On the 17th, with rivals still hoping for a late mistake, Rai rolled in a birdie putt from about 70 feet to seal the victory.

Rai won by three shots over 54-hole leader Alex Smalley and Jon Rahm. He became the first player from England to win the PGA Championship since Jim Barnes in 1919. He also joined two-time PGA champion Vijay Singh as one of the major winners of Indian heritage.

The final round began with a crowded leaderboard, as 22 players were within four shots of the lead, a PGA Championship record. Major champions, including Rahm, Rory McIlroy, Xander Schauffele, Cameron Smith, and Justin Rose, were all in position at different stages, but none could match Rai’s closing brilliance.

McIlroy shot 69 but struggled on key scoring holes, playing the par 5s in even par for the week. Rahm posted a 68 but was slowed by two front-nine bogeys. Smalley lost the lead after a double bogey on the sixth before birdieing the 18th for a 70.

Justin Thomas briefly threatened after a closing 65, finishing at 5-under 275 alongside Ludvig Åberg and Matti Schmid. Smith, McIlroy, and Schauffele finished another shot behind.

Rai, known for his humility, two gloves, and iron head covers, is widely respected by fellow players. “You won’t find one person on the property who’s not happy for him,” McIlroy said.

“Super pumped for him and his team,” Schauffele said. “All-world gentleman, no doubt.”

Rahm praised Rai’s character and performance. “Anybody that uses head covers in his irons because he coveted his irons when he was a kid so much that he wanted to respect the equipment and to still do it? Yeah, it shows a lot about a person,” Rahm said. “What he did today is nothing short of special.”

Rai’s victory brings a five-year PGA Tour exemption and entry into the Masters, U.S. Open, and British Open. He can also play the PGA Championship for life.

“Golf is an amazing game,” Rai said. “It teaches you so many things, and it teaches you so much humility and discipline and absolute hard work because nothing is ever given in this game.”

Nothing was given to Rai at Aronimink. He simply outplayed one of golf’s strongest fields.

South Africa’s Garrick Higgo began his PGA Championship with an unexpected two-stroke penalty after arriving late for his opening-round tee time, the PGA of America announced.

Higgo was scheduled to tee off at 7:18 a.m. alongside Michael Brennan and Shaun Micheel. Although he was on the putting green shortly before his start, he was not “within the area defined as the starting point at his starting time,” according to the ruling. BBC’s broadcast reported that Higgo arrived at the tee at 7:19 a.m., one minute after his official start time.

Under Rule 5.3 in the Rules of Golf, a player who arrives no more than five minutes late to the starting point receives a two-stroke penalty. If a player arrives more than five minutes late, they are subject to disqualification.

The penalty meant Higgo began his round with a double bogey on the first hole before hitting a shot. However, the two-time PGA TOUR winner responded impressively. He made birdies at Nos. 3 and 9 to get back to even par and later completed his round with a 1-under 69, despite the added penalty.

“I was trying to stay as warm as possible,” Higgo said. “It wasn’t a surprise. I was late. My caddie was yelling at me to get to the tee.”

Higgo, who is making his fourth career appearance at the PGA Championship, is still seeking his first top-40 finish in a major championship. His strong response after the penalty kept him in a competitive position, even after the unusual start.

Following the round, ESPN showed Higgo inside the scoring area speaking with multiple officials before signing his card. While the broadcast did not include audio from the scoring tent, Higgo appeared to be involved in an animated discussion as officials reviewed the circumstances around the penalty.

“I was just trying to get evidence. I feel like any of you would have done the same,” Higgo said. “I was there on time, but the rule is, if you’re one second late, you’re late. So if you think about it, I was there on time, if you know what I mean.”

Higgo said his pre-round routine had not changed, but admitted he may have been too relaxed before the early-morning tee time.

“If you know me, then you know I am very casual and laid back … I don’t want to be there 10 minutes early. I know that five minutes is fine. I thought I had time.”

NEWTOWN SQUARE, Pa. — Before last year’s PGA Championship, which saw Scottie Scheffler steamroll the field to win by five shots, the May version of this championship had produced tight affairs. Since the move in 2019, every PGA Championship has had a winning margin of two strokes or less, with Justin Thomas winning in a playoff at Southern Hills and Xander Schauffele making a tournament-sealing birdie on the 72nd hole at Valhalla, representing the smallest margin between winners and, well, the losers.

While some aesthetics of this championship may not live up to the standards of the others, what cannot be denied is how close the PGA Championship has been in recent years. And with this tightness comes the necessity to split hairs amongst the competitors vying to raise the Wanamaker Trophy by week’s end.

The golf world has both contracted and expanded in the early stages of the 2026 season. While the same name who occupies the top of every odds board occupies it this week, those immediately looking up at him seem to have inched closer. As for those who are looking up at the immediate chasing pack, however, that distance seems as far as ever.

Patrick Reed mentioned at the Masters that he believed there were roughly 10 players who could slip on the green jacket at Augusta National. He was probably right, but he did not know that he might have been speaking about all the major championships in 2026, including this one at Aronimink Golf Club.

Only six men in golf history have completed the career Grand Slam. Rory McIlroy was the most recent player to join that exclusive group after winning the 2025 Masters.

Jordan Spieth will have a chance to become the seventh this week at Aronimink, where a victory in the PGA Championship would complete one of golf’s rarest achievements.

The storyline is obvious, especially for those who have followed Spieth’s career closely. But the 32-year-old says he is not letting the weight of history affect his preparation.

“As the career Grand Slam, this tournament’s always highlighted,” Spieth said on Monday. “If I could win one more tournament in my life, it would obviously be this one for that reason. But the easiest way to do that is to not try to, in a weird way, you know. Just go out and get ready for the first hole, get a good game plan in and attack it the way it needs to be attacked.”

Spieth won three legs of the Grand Slam early in his career, claiming the Masters and U.S. Open in 2015 before adding the Open Championship in 2017. He came closest to winning the PGA Championship at Whistling Straits in 2015, finishing solo second, three shots behind Jason Day.

Since then, the PGA Championship has proved difficult for the 13-time PGA Tour winner. His only top-10 finish in the event since Whistling Straits came in 2019, when he tied for third at Bethpage Black.

Still, Spieth believes his game is trending in the right direction.

“My game has been getting better and better,” he said. “It’s plenty good to have a chance to win. It’s about working my way into contention. I was able to do that a couple weeks ago [T18 at the Cadillac Championship].”

Spieth has recorded six top-25 finishes this season but is still looking for his first victory since the 2022 RBC Heritage. He said the challenge has been bringing every part of his game together in the same week.

“It’s a whack-a-mole situation because I have had weeks where I’m leading in putting, weeks where I’ve leading in driving, weeks where I am leading in ball-striking, and then I just haven’t been able to kind of put them all together, at least have — haven’t had — you know, been able to lean on something on an off-day and not have, you know, something be a negative strokes that throws me out of a chance on any of those categories, right,” he said.

Rather than dwell on the inconsistency, Spieth is choosing to see the upside.

“The good news is within this season I’ve been able to lead in each [category], so I should be confident that I have at least each part of the game as a weapon,” he said.

“It’s just focusing on the right things, putting it together, limiting the mistakes, and then when something feels a little bit off, managing to be able to shoot a couple under par versus a couple over par.”

A win this week would place Spieth in one of golf’s most exclusive clubs.

“It would be amazing, right, because it’s just a very, very short list in history,” he said. “But obviously with having won the other three, that’s the one that everyone focuses on,” Spieth added. “But when I’m out here, and certainly when I get out on the golf course, I’ve been in contention a couple of times in this tournament. It didn’t feel any different than any other majors, so I wouldn’t expect to if I get there this week.”

Rory McIlroy will return to action on Thursday at the 2026 Truist Championship, making his first start since winning his second consecutive Masters title. The world No. 2 arrived this week with a different kind of focus, looking like a player who has moved into a new phase of his career after adding another green jacket to his collection.

A year ago, McIlroy was still processing the emotion of finally completing the career grand slam. That Master’s victory ended a long wait to return to the major championship winner’s circle and lifted the pressure that had followed him for more than a decade. But in the weeks after that win, he admitted he struggled to find motivation and even wondered what was left for him to chase.

This time, the feeling is different. After another victory at Augusta National, McIlroy appears more driven rather than satisfied. By becoming only the fourth player to win back-to-back Masters titles, he has added another historic achievement to his career, but it has also reminded him that there is still plenty ahead.

“It feels a lot different. Even winning felt different,” McIlroy said. “I felt like winning the grand slam was going to be this life-changing thing, and in some ways, it was, but in other ways, I had to remember like, no, I still have a lot of my career left, and I want to keep playing and keep competing.

Rory McIlroy on why players skipping some weeks produces the best product in the long run: “That’s what Tiger used to do, he picked & chose what events he wanted to play where he felt like he had the best chance to win…what Scottie & I are doing at the minute is no different.”

“Winning [this year] was validation for all the work that I’ve put in over the last few years to get myself back to this place where I’m winning majors. I’m excited for the road ahead. I’m excited for this week. I’m excited for Aronimink next week, Shinnecock, [Royal] Birkdale. If anything, I’m more motivated after what happened at Augusta this year than I’ve ever been.”

I think people are just going to have to expect that this is the way it’s going to be. That’s what Tiger used to do; he picked and chose what events he wanted to play where he felt like he had the best cadence to his schedule, and where he had the best chance to win. I think what Scottie and I are doing at the moment is no different.

After winning the 2025 Masters, many expected McIlroy to make a major push, especially with courses like Quail Hollow and Royal Portrush on the schedule. That run did not happen, but now he appears better prepared to use the freedom that came with completing the grand slam.

McIlroy’s confidence also comes from the belief that his game is more complete than ever. Earlier in his career, his major success was built on natural talent, power and the fearlessness of youth. Now, he is combining those strengths with patience, experience and a sharper mental approach.

The pressure that once surrounded every major near-miss has also changed. With the grand slam secured and his legacy already strengthened, a loss no longer feels like a judgment on his career. A win, however, could take him even higher among golf’s all-time greats.

McIlroy’s next major would be his seventh, moving him closer to the top 10 in history and making him the most successful European major winner. For now, he is keeping his personal targets private, but his message is clear: he is not done chasing history.

The PGA Tour’s busy spring stretch continues this week with the 2026 Truist Championship at Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, N.C. The tournament begins Thursday and arrives one week before the PGA Championship, the second major of the season.

The Truist Championship is another Signature Event on the schedule, following last week’s Cadillac Championship. World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler is not playing this week, but Rory McIlroy headlines the field and enters as the betting favorite.

According to the latest 2026 Truist Championship odds from FanDuel, McIlroy is listed at +550. Cameron Young follows at +950 after his wire-to-wire victory at the Blue Monster last week. Xander Schauffele is priced at +1000, while Matt Fitzpatrick is +1500 and Ludvig Aberg is +1800.

SportsLine’s computer model, built by DFS pro Mike McClure, has simulated the 2026 Truist Championship 10,000 times. The model has a long track record in golf projections and has correctly predicted 17 majors entering the weekend, including the 2026 Masters, its fifth straight Masters call. It also hit last year’s PGA Championship and Open Championship.

One of the model’s biggest calls this week involves Si Woo Kim. Despite being seventh on the odds board at +2500, Kim is not projected as one of the top contenders. The model has him barely inside the top 20 on its projected leaderboard.

Kim comes into the event in strong recent form, with three top-10 finishes in his last four starts. That includes a tie for fourth at the Cadillac Championship. He also finished solo eighth at last year’s PGA Championship at Quail Hollow, though that result was helped by a second-round 64. In his other three rounds, Kim shot 71 or higher.

Because of that, the model is fading him this week and describes him as “a golfer to avoid this week.” Another notable projection is Adam Scott, who is listed at +3300. The model views Scott as a target for outright bets as well as finishing-position markets, including top-five and top-10 wagers.

Scott tied Kim for fourth at the Cadillac Championship last week, giving him his second top-five finish of the year. While his putting has been inconsistent, his overall ball-striking numbers remain strong. He ranks first on the PGA Tour in strokes gained: approaching the green, a key metric at a demanding course like Quail Hollow.

The model is also pointing to several longshots, including one player near 70-1 who is projected to make a “stunning run for the title.”

Phil Mickelson will not compete in next week’s PGA Championship as he continues to deal with a family health issue, tournament organizers confirmed Tuesday.

Mickelson, 55, a three-time Masters champion and six-time major winner, has withdrawn from the field at Aronimink Golf Club, where the PGA Championship is scheduled to take place from May 14 to May 17. Max Homa has been added to the field as his replacement.

The withdrawal marks another absence for Mickelson during a season in which he has already missed several events. The LIV Golf player also sat out the 2026 Masters at Augusta National last month after announcing he would take time away from competition for an unspecified family health matter.

“Unfortunately, I will not play in The Masters Tournament next week and will be out for an extended period of time as my family continues to navigate a personal health matter,” Mickelson wrote in an April statement posted to social media.

“I wish everyone the best of luck and will be watching,” he added.

Augusta National Chairman Fred Ridley expressed support for Mickelson at the time, acknowledging the golfer’s long connection with the tournament.

“We know how much Phil loves the Masters tournament, and he will be missed by everyone in Augusta next week,” Ridley’s statement said. “He has our complete support as he takes time to be with his family.”

Mickelson’s latest withdrawal means he will miss another major championship after previously being expected to join a field of more than 150 players at Aronimink. He has won the PGA Championship twice, including his historic 2021 victory at Kiawah Island Golf Resort in South Carolina. That win made him the oldest player to capture a major title, doing so at age 50.

His absence also disrupts the start of the year. Mickelson has missed four LIV Golf events this season, including tournaments in Hong Kong and Singapore. In February, a “family health matter” was also cited as the reason for his absence.

Mickelson briefly returned to competition in March at a LIV Golf event in South Africa, where he finished tied for 48th. Soon after, he announced in early April that he would step away from golf for an extended period.

No further details have been released about the family health matter.

Cameron Young’s toughest opponent at the Cadillac Championship turned out to be himself — and even that couldn’t stop him. On the par-4 second hole Sunday, Young watched his ball shift in the fairway after address and immediately called a one-stroke penalty on himself. Then he made par anyway. It set the tone for a week in which he was simply untouchable.

Young led wire-to-wire at Trump National Doral, closing with a 4-under 68 to finish at 19-under for the tournament, six shots ahead of world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, who also shot 68. The margin of victory told only part of the story.

“When the golf course is difficult, when the conditions are difficult, that tends to make me easier for me mentally,” Young said. With President Donald Trump watching from the course alongside family members including granddaughter Kai Trump, who is set to play collegiate golf at the University of Miami Young pocketed $3.6 million, the second-largest payday of his career behind the $4.5 million he earned at The Players Championship earlier this season.

Trump arrived shortly after noon and stayed until the final putt dropped, joining spectators who were allowed into the fairway around the 18th hole to witness the closing moments. Early Sunday morning brought just over an inch of rain, pushing back the scheduled 7:30 a.m. start by two hours.

The wet conditions softened the famed Blue Monster; considerably preferred lies were granted, and scoring dropped noticeably. While the average score hovered between 71 and 71.6 in the first three rounds, Sunday’s field averaged 69. The par-5 18th hole, which had yielded only nine birdies across the first three rounds combined, produced 12 birdies on Sunday alone.

Scheffler, meanwhile, has now finished second in three consecutive starts, trailing Rory McIlroy by a shot at the Masters, losing a playoff to Matt Fitzpatrick at Hilton Head, and now finishing well behind Young. The first two were agonizingly close. This one was not. On the self-imposed penalty, Young said there was never any hesitation.

“Your heart sinks when you see it move,” Young said. “But it moved. That’s part of what golf is about. There’s no one who’s going to give me a penalty there but myself.” Ben Griffin (68) finished third at 12-under, while Si Woo Kim (70), Sepp Straka (66) and Adam Scott (64) shared fourth at 11-under.

Scott was perhaps the weekend’s other headline performer, shooting 66-64 over the final two days. The result likely secured his place in the U.S. Open, which, assuming he tees it up at the PGA Championship later this month, would mark his 100th consecutive major start.

“To win a major I’m going to need to put four days together, not just a weekend coming from behind,” said Scott, who last won at Doral in 2016. “I feel like my game is there. I’m doing all the things that I think I need to do to be in that kind of contention.”

The walls are closing in on LIV Golf, and the players who gambled their careers on it are now quietly knocking on the door they once walked out of. With Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund reportedly set to withdraw its financial backing from LIV Golf after 2026, representatives for multiple LIV players have already contacted the PGA Tour to explore a potential return.

The conversations are real, sources say, but the welcome mat is anything but warm. The PGA Tour had offered a formal pathway earlier this year through its “Returning Member Program,” a performance-based route designed for players who had been away from the tour for at least two years and had won a major or The Players Championship between 2022 and 2025.

Beyond Brooks Koepka, who announced his departure from LIV in January, only three players qualified: Cam Smith, Jon Rahm, and Bryson DeChambeau. The window closed on February 2. All three passed. It is not expected to be renewed, according to Sports Business Journal.

“The situation is different now.” Players hoping for even the more modest arrangement Patrick Reed received, a one-year ban tied to his last LIV appearance, may find that option unavailable, too. Complicating matters further, LIV players left the tour for various reasons.

Some resigned their memberships; others simply vanished without formally doing so. The tour intends to sort returning players into distinct categories accordingly. The eleven players who joined an antitrust lawsuit against the PGA Tour, including DeChambeau, Phil Mickelson, Talor Gooch, and Ian Poulter, are expected to face the steepest scrutiny.

Resentment over that litigation has not faded. “I don’t necessarily have scar tissue, but there are plenty of people around our tour who do,” PGA Tour CEO Brian Rolapp told the Wall Street Journal. “It has to be accounted for in some shape or form.” The two most consequential cases are Rahm and DeChambeau. Rahm’s departure at the end of 2023 is widely viewed inside the tour as having extended the conflict by a year.

He crossed over just as LIV was faltering, giving the Saudi circuit a credibility boost it was running out of time to manufacture. His DP World Tour reinstatement remains unresolved, clouding his 2027 Ryder Cup eligibility. At Augusta, he was unapologetic and showed no sign of softening. DeChambeau’s situation is murkier still.

His representatives reportedly approached LIV about a new deal before the Masters, seeking a figure well above Rahm’s reported $300 million contract. LIV did not engage. His current deal runs through year’s end, and his future remains publicly unresolved. For both men and many others on the LIV roster, the window may be narrowing faster than they anticipated on terms they no longer get to set.

After a ten-year absence, the PGA Tour is heading back to Trump National Doral in Miami this week for the inaugural Cadillac Championship, though “inaugural” is a word that deserves an asterisk. Cadillac was also the title sponsor the last time Doral hosted a Tour event back in 2016, when it was branded as the WGC-Cadillac Championship.

The reunion with one of Florida’s most storied layouts is significant, as the event has been elevated to signature status and features a hefty $20 million purse. The Blue Monster, a 7,739-yard test of nerve and ball-striking designed by Dick Wilson in 1962, was a fixture on the PGA Tour calendar for over five decades, hosting events annually from 1962 through 2016.

Wilson’s creation set the template for modern South Florida golf, featuring countless lakes, deep bunkers, and greens elevated above the fairways to demand precise aerial approaches. It’s a course that punishes mistakes and rewards players who can manage the wind.

This week’s field is loaded with marquee names ready to take on the challenge. World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler leads the charge alongside Cameron Young and Justin Rose. Also in contention are Collin Morikawa, Tommy Fleetwood, Russell Henley, Hideki Matsuyama, J.J. Spaun, Chris Gotterup, Sepp Straka, and Zurich Classic champion Alex Fitzpatrick, among others.

The last man to conquer the Blue Monster was Adam Scott, who edged Bubba Watson by a single stroke at the 2016 WGC-Cadillac Championship. Scott returns to Doral this week carrying fond memories of the place.

“It’s great to be back here,” Scott said on Tuesday. “Good memories for me. Obviously, winning the last time we were here, but always enjoyed playing this golf course. It’s a challenge. It’s called the Blue Monster for a reason. It’s a big, very penal golf course. The wind can blow, and that’s the biggest challenge out here.

So you’ve got to strike it well, just demanding tee-to-green. It’s great that we’re back, and looking forward to this week.” Whoever claims the title this week will pocket $3.6 million and collect 700 FedEx Cup points, a massive haul that could shake up the season standings significantly.
