The PGA Championship is the final of Golf's four "Majors" of the year and this tournament has seen nine different champions in the last ten years with only Tiger Woods managing to win twice in 2006 and 2007 and after making his return to action at the WGC last week, the troubled former World Number One and 14 times Major winner, Woods, will be looking to bounce back to winning ways and top the PGA Championship Leaderboard come Sunday evening.

The defending champion is the German star, Martin Kaymer, who took the crown at Whistling Straits 12 months ago following a three hole play-off with American Bubba Watson and the defending champion is once again towards the head of the betting again this year with odds of 28/1.

The PGA Championship Odds have Rory McIlroy as the 11/1 favourite to win following his runaway win in the US Open back in June and it is though that the characteristics of the course will play to the young Ulsterman's strengths. English duo and current first and second in the World Rankings Luke Donald and Lee Westwood are joint second favourites at odds of 14/1 with Bet365 but despite consistent performances on the European Tour, neither has won a Major. Adam Scott who won the WGC at Firestone on Sunday is next best at 22/1 whilst Tiger Woods is 25/1, the biggest price he has been since winning his first major back in 1997!

For the first time ever at the PGA Championship, the "champions group" which is a three-ball group for the first two rounds of the competition will made up by this year’s champions at the US Masters, US Open and British Open will not include an American. The group will comprise of Masters winner, Charl Schwartzel of South Africa and the two men from Northern Ireland, Rory McIlroy and Darren Clarke who won the US Open and British Open respectively - a guaranteed box office hit when the action begins on Thursday.
