This year has been totally bonkers, and nothing typifies that more than the PGA Championship being the first major played this season. Obviously, the event will be without fans, however, there will still be plenty of interest worldwide, and there’s already been plenty of betting interest.

Since the golf season re-started, bettors have been checking the PGA Championship odds market on a regular basis as the world’s best have been trying to regain their touch on the PGA Tour.

Below we’ve taken a look at the players who have seen the most wagers since the PGA Tour re-started. At the bottom of the page you’ll see the latest PGA Championship odds.

Top Ten Most Back Golfers for the PGA Championship

1. Bryson Dechambeau – 17.4% of bets

Bryson Dechambeau being one of the most backed players for the PGA Championship hardly comes as a surprise given the form he’s been in since the re-start. Bryson has been the talk of the down with his big-hitting and occasional tantrum. However, that shouldn’t distract you from the fact he’s had four top ten finishes in his last five competitions, which includes winning the Rocket Mortgage Classic.

Dechambeau’s form has seen his PGA Championship odds cut from +4000 in January to being second-favorite.

2. Rory McIlroy – 5.9% of bets

Despite Rory McIlroy being in contention for the majority of competitions since the re-start, I’m sure he’ll be frustrated not to record a top ten finish. Rory’s tended to struggle on the final day, he’s only hit under 70 once on day four in the last four events.

Rory McIlroy is still the favourite to win the PGA Championship, and has been a popular pick with bettors.

3. Jon Rahm – 4.6% of bets

The top three in the betting are also the top three in terms of odds. Jon Rahm has been the third most backed player in the field, which unsurprising given his dominance at The Memorial Tournament.

4. Danny Willett – 4.5% of bets

This one is surprising. We were expecting to see someone like Dustin Johnson, Tiger Woods or Brooks Koepka as the 4th most backed player for the PGA Championship. However, Danny Willett beats all of them. Bettors must have been impressed with the 4th place finish at the Rocket Mortgage Classic, as the Englishman has shown little else since the PGA Tour returned.
