Ea sports pga tour roster: every golfer available at launch.

EA Sports PGA Tour is going to launch with eleven amazing pro-golfers for players to choose from, with even more coming throughout the spring.

EA Sports PGA Tour is going to be launching this April with 30 courses and 11 pro-golfers, as well as a custom career mode where players can create their own character to take all the way to the Masters. After the game has been released, even more athletes and other content will continue to be added, particularly throughout Spring 2023. EA Sports has said it is working to create an authentic golf experience, and with the attention to detail that has been shown in the trailers so far, it looks as though they have done just that.

The major focus of EA Sports PGA Tour has been on creating true-to-life courses and golfing gameplay mechanics; however, these courses still need characters for players to control as they experience all of this. In addition to having some of the notable PGA Tour athletes, EA Sports PGA Tour partnered with LPGA to bring more female golfers into the game as well.

EA Sports PGA Tour is just days away from launch. And over the last couple of months, not only did we get to see all the new courses coming to the game, but we also got to see some of the pros you will get to go head to head with in the game.

Although we haven’t seen all of the golfers that will be coming to the new PGA Tour game just yet, we have received a good look at the ones revealed so far, all of which look amazing in the Frostbite engine.

Here is the full list of pro golfers you will be able to use.

EA Sports PGA Tour – Pro Golfers Roster

Though EA Sports has revealed a load of new content and features that will be coming to its new golf video game, not a whole lot has been shared regarding the actual roster fans will be able to use or play against.

That said, a handful of pro golfers have been confirmed already. And we’re here to provide you the full list of pro golfers you will find in the new game come its launch later this week.

So without further ado, here are all the pro golfers that have been revealed so far:

• Scottie Scheffler 
• Cameron Champ 
• Xander Schauffele 
• Im Sung-jae
• Nelly Korda 
• Lexi Thompson 
• Jordan Spieth

It’s unlikely this will be the final list of golfers you will be able to play with once the new game goes live. This list only consists of the pro golfers that EA Sports revealed so far.

EA Sports PGA Tour – Are Pro Golfers Playable?

The answer is yes! We can confirm that you will be able to play as your favourite pros in EA Sports PGA Tour, or you can play against them. The list of golfers above consist of nine of the new pros you can play with or against.

EA Sports PGA Tour Releases March 24, Course List Revealed

The upcoming golf sim features all four Major championships, plenty of pros, and more

By Steven Petite on January 19, 2023 at 8:00AM PST

It's been more than seven years since EA Sports released a golf game, but the drought is about to end. EA Sports PGA Tour releases on March 24 for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Based on early gameplay footage and the wealth of announced content, golfers have a lot to be excited for.

EA Sports is really emphasizing Major championships with this new release. Unlike the game's main competitor (PGA Tour 2K23), all four of golf's most prestigious tournaments will be included. That means you'll get to tee it up at the famous August National, home of the Masters Tournament, as well as the US Open, PGA Championship, and The Open.

At launch, EA Sports PGA Tour will have an expansive lineup of 30 real courses, including all of the Major championship tracks from 2021 through 2023. To promote accuracy, EA Sports used drones and LiDAR helicopters--which are specifically designed for mapping--to create realistic terrain. Though the average golf fan most likely wouldn't be able to spot inconsistencies in green contours or fairway undulations, EA said that even Augusta National's expert caddies noticed the realism. The caddies putted on the greens without in-game assist measures and found that their local knowledge was enough to drain putts.

In the career mode, golfers will make their way through the PGA Tour schedule and try to achieve enough points to make the FedExCup Playoffs You'll be able to create your own golfer--male or female--and earn experience points that can then be used to improve your golfer's attributes. The PGA Tour schedule is the focus, but the sim also has multiple well-known tournaments for female golfers, including the Augusta National Women's Amateur and The Evian Championship, one of the LPGA Tour's Major championships.

In addition to playing as your created golfer, you'll be able to play as some of the best golfers in the world, each of whom had their likeness and unique swing captured. The whole roster hasn't been revealed, but there are plenty of big names already: Scottie Scheffler, Patrick Cantlay, Jordan Spieth, Tony Finau, Nelly Korda, and Lexi Thompson.

Notably, you won't find Tiger Woods on the roster. The golf legend, who appeared in the title and on the cover of many entries in EA's golf series, now stars in 2K's franchise. Woods was the cover athlete for PGA Tour 2K23.

EA Sports integrated the PGA Tour's Shotlink data tracking to convert top pros' games to virtual form. For the past two decades, Shotlink has logged player swings and performance to come up with detailed stats, which are used in EA Sports PGA Tour's player ratings system.

The game also uses TrackMan, a high-end launch monitor that the majority of pros use to hone in on swing data. In practice, TrackMan statistics such as ball and swing speed, launch angle, apex, and curvature will be shown on screen as you play. And since the game has 20 different shot types for each club, there will be lots of data for golf nerds to pore over.

More details on EA Sports PGA Tour will be released in the coming weeks. Preorders go live today for both the standard and deluxe editions. The deluxe edition comes with three-day early access as well as a slew of in-game content: Scotty Cameron putter, in-game gear themed around The Players Championship and The Masters, and 1,500 Premium PGA Tour points (in-game currency). Microtransactions will be limited to cosmetics.

Like other EA sports sims, EA Play members will be able to check out a 10-hour trial starting March 21. Meanwhile, EA Play Pro members will have full access to the deluxe edition of th game starting that day.

You can check out the revealed courses below:

EA’s golf game returns with more courses, more customization, and more shots

30 bucket-list courses to play in a deep career and try your riskiest shots on — or play them safe

Share All sharing options for: EA’s golf game returns with more courses, more customization, and more shots

It only seems like the biggest features in EA Sports PGA Tour , which launches April 7, are the ones that fans already played and enjoyed a decade ago. Augusta National Golf Course and all four of the men’s major championships are in; even things like boosted drives with “big-hit moment” camera changes are making a return.

But focusing only on the return of the Masters Tournament, or the visual fidelity with which Augusta National and other courses are presented, would sell short what I saw in a presentation last week. Namely, a career mode that is even more RPG-like than before, offers more ways to customize and mold your created golfer’s playing style, and looks like it will swallow just as many of my evenings as the old Tiger Woods games did.

EA Sports PGA Tour looks like a game where, even though there will be more real-life professionals on the roster than ever, the developers understand that the users themselves are the real stars of the show.

“Even when we had Tiger, over 97% of people play as a created player,” producer Ben Ramsour told Polygon in an interview after the presentation. “So we know that’s a core motivation. However, we’ve done a lot to build these relationships with these pros, and we want to tell their stories in the game.”

Granted, I couldn’t pull much from a single glimpse of the detailed golfer progression screen we were shown. But players will rank up 10 different skills (each with 10 ranks) as they acquire skill points with each level. Lead producer David Baker even intimated that at advanced levels, players will be able to unlock packages of traits that will make their golfer’s abilities resemble the playing styles of the PGA’s and LPGA’s biggest stars.

All of this leans into new gameplay that continues to offer broad-based shot-shaping features and differentiates them even more with 20 shot types, some of which are unlocked in the later stages of attribute progression. Those shot types may also be ranked up, it seems.

“I think a big thing is experimentation,” Ramsour said, noting that players can again create multiple avatars and progress them individually. He also said, “We want users to see, Hey, Tony Finau’s game really matches well to Augusta, but it’s terrible for Harbour Town .”

This is surfaced through a nifty little menu that I saw called Course Fit, which stole the show as far as something new that will connect me more to my created golfer. Course Fit, seen on the course selection screen, gives players a relative view of their skills versus what the course will expect of a winning player. Five attributes — Power, Driving, Approach, Short Game, and Putting — all have bars; the closer a player’s bar is to the course’s, the more they’ll be able to take advantage of that characteristic.

It’s not an attribute boost; it’s just visual information that will give me a sense of just how risky my ideas are on the second shot of, say, one of East Lake Golf Club’s par-5 holes, or how important it’s going to be to stick this approach at Pebble Beach, where there’s a demanding putting game waiting for me.

“So for me, I want to win the major championships,” Ramsour said. “So in my primary created player, I am leveling up the shot types to win the four majors. But eventually, I’m going to want to win every single tournament on the hardest mode. So I know I’m going to have to be less of a bomber and more precise to win at Harbour Town.”

Although players may have multiple created golfers, most stick with one for Career. They will most likely see all of the differences Ramsour mentioned in Challenges, a separate mode, but one that has a supplementary effect to Career.

Challenges, to me, resembled the kind of bite-sized moments available in Madden Ultimate Team’s single-player offering. Indeed, they’ll be live-service content, driven by real-world occurrences, and like MUT, they’ll use different players in addition to the created pro. Baker said that the challenges are designed to play like between-rounds practices, meaning they’ll be shorter experiences focused on a particular skill or a particular moment.

The rewards will be skill points for use in created-player progression, as well as clubs and cosmetic items they can equip. (Importantly, these clubs, equipment, and apparel do not affect player attributes, as they may have in the past.) Golfers can expect a season-based approach here that other online sports video games have adopted.

All of these modes, players, and courses — 30 at launch, the most ever for the standard edition of an EA Sports golf title — mean little if the core gameplay isn’t tight, informative, and understandable. While the event last week was not hands-on, the developers focused on the swing mechanism and the 20 shot types supporting it in a one-hole demonstration at Augusta’s No. 13.

Best example: a “stinger,” which is a lower but safer shot from the tee. Gameplay designer Craig Penner used the stinger to rope a 266-yard drive with Jordan Spieth that still hugged No. 13’s famous left-hand sweep — it just used the downhill fairway to get its distance. In the end, Spieth sacrificed about 10 yards of distance to make a safer shot. This is something I would often try to replicate in Tiger Woods PGA Tour 14 , but the lowest trajectory that game offered didn’t come close to what I saw last week.

Ramsour, playing as 2022 Masters winner Scottie Scheffler, used a boost-assisted power drive — impressive, and successful, but still a dangerous shot that is a blind approach, and which could clip the treetops if not executed perfectly. But again, Scheffler is longer off the tee than Spieth, so both golfers were playing to type and taking, or avoiding, appropriate risks (especially as they were highlighted by Course Fit).

I was also struck by the bits of commentary we heard from the game as the demonstration played out. For once, it sounded like the broadcast team was actually watching what was being played. Lead commentator Rich Lerner returns from 2015’s Rory McIlroy PGA Tour , and on Penner’s shot with Spieth, I heard him discussing the use of the fairway’s width and slope to get the desired result.

Returning broadcast partner Frank Nobilo (and new course reporters Notah Begay III and Iona Stephen ) also provided context-appropriate color, a dramatic improvement over past games, which mostly offered generic repetition.

“We have tech that delivers detailed analysis on how putts will break,” Baker said in last week’s presentation. “There’s also a system that connects the field reporter analysis of the current situation, and also highlights landmarks from our great list of courses, to tell historical stories from those exact spots on the course.”

EA Sports PGA Tour launches Friday, April 7 — during the second round of the Masters — on PlayStation 5, Windows PC, and Xbox Series X . Those who pre-order the $84.99 deluxe edition will get access to the game on Tuesday, April 4. The deluxe edition has additional in-game content, such as virtual currency for the in-game pro shop’s items and an XP boost.

Update (March 3): EA Sports has announced that EA Sports PGA Tour will be delayed two weeks from its originally announced release date, and will now arrive on April 7. This story has been updated with the new date.

So, which courses will be a part of PGA Tour? Here’s what we know so far.

Per EA, the new Majors host for 2023 will be added post-launch .

All EA Sports PGA Tour – Road to the Masters Pro Golfers Listed

If you’re interested in discovering what professional golfers have been included in the return of EA Sports PGA, you’ve come to the right place. EA announced that 22 Pro Golfers would be involved in Road to the Masters’ initial launch, and they’ve stayed true to their word. 

One of the main questions to derive from this, since before the game’s launch is: Will Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy be in EA Sports PGA Tour – Road to the Masters?

To find out, read the list below. Prima Games has itemised all the professionals available to play with in certain game modes. Let’s take a look at who they are.

EA Sports PGA Tour: Professional Men Golfers

All-in-all, there are 17 professional men golfers in Road to the Masters. Sadly, none of them are Tiger Woods or Rory McIlroy. Will they ever be included in the game? 

It’s no secret that Tiger Woods has recently signed a multimillion-dollar exclusive deal with the PGA Tour 2K series. The chances of him joining are a big NO! On the other hand, Rory McIlroy could still make his way to the game, but it has not yet been confirmed when he will make an entry. Fingers crossed, it’s very soon.

Road to the Masters: Professional Women Golfers

To date, there are only five Pro Women golfers. EA has stated that we will undoubtedly see more of the big names in the game, men and women, come to EA Sports PGA Tour – Road to the Masters’ post-launch. 

When EA adds the rest of the Pros is yet to be confirmed. All that’s been established: new Pros will be added when there are updates or when a new tournament starts. Keep this list handy and close by, as it’ll be updated each time a professional is added to the game.

EA SPORTS PGA TOUR’s high-fidelity visuals and gameplay are only possible with  PlayStation 5 and Xbox X|S consoles as well as some PCs, so the game was developed with this in mind.

What is the fps for EA SPORTS PGA TOUR?

On PC, EA SPORTS PGA TOUR can run at 30 fps, 60 fps, or unlocked framerate. Consoles (Xbox X|S and PS 5) will run 30 fps.

We understand that some players have a strong visual preference for higher framerate in their video games and we’ve heard community feedback surrounding the fps of the game on console. As a result, we’re examining the ability to add it into the game in the future.

What impacts your shot?

There’s a reason players and caddies talk before their shot to best achieve success on the course so you’ll experience this in the pre-shot decisions you’ll have to make for a great shot. The challenge of your shot appears in a split between pre-shot decisions like club and shot types, with swing execution and placement based on course dynamics. This way you’ll be thinking more “golf” and less “golf swing” only.

A variety of factors like club and shot type all impact your shot but most of all, course dynamics and ball behavior like wind, altitude, terrain reactions, ball dribbling, and more will impact your shot. The full list of aspects that impact your shot are listed below

• Slope of the terrain
• Velocity & spin reduction from adverse terrain (like rough)
• Golfer, club, and ball attributes
• Power boost
• Swing execution
• In-flight Spin Control
• Ball Reactions depending on terrain type and course Conditions
• Ball dribbling

What game modes (online and offline) are available in-game?

Online game modes:

Online game modes support simultaneous play for up to 16 players and include the following game mopeds.

• COMPETITIVE mode is ranked matchmaking to test your skills in numerous game types including 9 and 18 hole rounds.
• SOCIAL mode allows you to play against similarly skilled players online in a more relaxed  unranked environment, offering multiple ways to play such as 9 and 18 hole rounds.
• PRIVATE MATCH mode allows you to group up with your friends and play online together with full control of gameplay and round settings allowing you to fully customize your round.

Offline game modes:

• If you just want to dive in quickly and play a round, QUICK PLAY is exactly what you’re looking for.  Quick play can also be played as local multiplayer (couch co-op) with up to 4 golfers offering varying ways to compete such as match play, skins, alternate shot rules, and more.
• CAREER MODE is an offline mode that will be playable at launch (but will require an online connection). You’ll hear more about that during our career mode deep dive in the coming weeks.
• CHALLENGES provides bite-sized experiences of various lengths. Ranging anywhere from a 4 hole challenge to recreating a golfer’s hot streak from a recent PGA Tour event, to single shot challenges where you, for example, are given 5 opportunities to hit a specific shot, challenges are short yet difficult moments for you to grow your skills and earn rewards. Within Challenges mode, there’s “PGA Coach Skill Center” which is a great way to learn more about game mechanics, shot types, and the game of golf in general.
• TOURNAMENTS provides limited-time tournaments for players to go in by themselves and submit a score to a global leaderboard that other users are also submitting to. From here, the game gives you a final rank that is paid out in rank points based on finishing position. Most of it is stroke play, where the number of holes can be variable. Ongoing seasonal events throughout the pro golf calendar can also alter the tournaments for different settings on different courses.

How can I customize gameplay to my personal preferences?

EA SPORTS PGA TOUR features a variety of gameplay styles from arcade settings that assist you with a putting grid, power boost, and spin control to simulation settings that remove all assistance for a true-to-life gameplay experience.

Is there weather available in-game?

There are a variety of factors that impact gameplay on the course including altitude and wind. Courses in traditionally cloudy areas like The Old Course at St. Andrews will appear cloudy while sunny courses like The Ocean Course at Kiawah Island will appear bright. Other weather conditions will not affect gameplay or appear in-game.

Will there be a 3-click swing option in-game?

We know that the 3-click swing is important to the community and as a result of early community feedback we are planning to include this swing in an early title update after launch.

30 courses are available from the launch of EA Sports PGA Tour and we got a look at some of them in fine detail via the Couse Overview Trailer!

The trailer gave us a deep dive into the creation of some of the courses in the game, which look ultra-realistic and should transport you into the action.

The Course Overview Trailer went live on Tuesday, 21 February at 11am EST / 4pm GMT , and you can check it out below.

Augusta National is one of golf's most iconic courses, and unsurprisingly it will test your golfing abilities to the max.

EA has recreated Augusta to perfection, with every stunning detail adding to the experience of playing at the famous Masters venue.

Triumph at Augusta National and you will win a coveted green jacket, so what are you waiting for? Read our Augusta Guide .

It's not just the visuals that bring the classy courses to life in EA Sports PGA Tour, but also the ball behaviour.

Generating an accurate feel for the different courses was an important part of the process for the design team, with factors impacting the height of a ball’s bounce, the speed of its roll, the impact on ball spin, and the launch of the ball.

Everything from the speed and firmness of the fairway to the length of the first cut has been taken into account, and you will also feel how your ball behaves differently in the air at different altitudes, so courses above sea level will see balls go further than those on the coast!

EA Sports PGA Tour making history with inclusion of LPGA players, commentator

Jin Young Ko is the first LPGA player to be revealed as part of EA Sports PGA Tour.

Jin Young Ko

If you’re a golfer and a gamer, you likely already know that there’s been a boom in golf video games. 

And with EA Sports announcing the return of EA Sports PGA Tour, the company’s first golf video game since Rory McIlroy PGA Tour came out in 2014, they’ve got something special in store.

That’s because for the first time since 2014, LPGA players will be included in a golf video game. And that game will have a female commentator to call the action.

While it may seem like a small thing to celebrate, bringing the best women in the game to the consoles and screens of gamers all over the world is huge in terms of elevating the women’s game and growing it’s fan base. 

To that point, EA Sports Senior Producer Jenny Martin believes the partnership between EA and the LPGA is crucial to growing the women’s game. 

“The partnership itself is a testament to our commitment to growing the game of women’s golf,” she told GOLF.com. “It is also part of our (EA Sports) desire to create a more diverse and welcoming community into our game.” 

Augusta National is officially making a return to EA Sports video games

As if including LPGA players in a video game wasn’t groundbreaking enough, EA Sports PGA Tour will also include a woman commentator voiced by Sky Sports and Golf TV host Iona Stephen , who also happens to be a member of EA Sports’ Creative Council for the first time. 

For Stephen, this opportunity goes beyond just lending her voice to the final product in the form of in-game commentary.

“It’s a great achievement to have more in-depth female representation across all modes in EA Sports PGA Tour,” she said. “I’m thrilled to help provide this offering for LPGA fans, especially when more fans are getting into gaming.”

EA Sports’ decision to include women in the next iteration of this game is indicative of the push being made in golf and in the wider world of sports to be more inclusive and elevate women’s sports. This move is  akin to NBA 2K22 announcing Candace Parker as the first female basketball player to grace it’s cover in the game’s history, and it goes a long way to bringing the women’s game to new audiences. 

As for which LPGA stars will grace gamers’ screens. World No. 2 Jin Young Ko , a two-time major champion and eight-time LPGA winner, has been announced as the first among a roster of LPGA players coming to the game in 2022. 

“I’m beyond excited to be included as one of the female golfers in EA SPORTS PGA TOUR,” Ko said of her inclusion in the game. “Women’s golf is growing so fast and having us included in this game is a great opportunity to reach fans all around the world.”

Between the inclusion of the best LPGA players in the game, and some of the best courses golfers can dream of including Augusta National and now the Evian Golf Club, home of the Amundi Evian Championship, golfers and gamers alike have a lot to look forward to in spring 2022.

Jack Nicklaus joins the game roster, increasing the roster size to 23 playable golfers.

In-game, he comes with his own unique set of golf clubs, outfits, and swing animation. Play as one of the best to ever do it in any mode that lets you play as pro golfers.

Lastly, EA Sports updated Challenges Mode with two new series:

2024 PGA Championship odds, field: Surprising PGA picks from golf model that won 11 majors

Sportsline's proven model simulated the pga championship 2024 10,000 times and revealed its pga golf picks for valhalla golf club.

The second major of the season will begin on Thursday, May 16, when the 2024 PGA Championship is held at Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville, Kentucky. Designed by Jack Nicklaus and opened in 1986, Valhalla will host its fourth PGA Championship and has also hosted two Senior PGA Championships and the 2008 Ryder Cup. Rory McIlroy was the winner at Valhalla the last time the club hosted a PGA Championship, defeating Phil Mickelson by a stroke in 2014. McIlroy hasn't won a major championship since despite 20 top-10 finishes, but he's one of the favorites at 10-1 in the 2024 PGA Championship odds.

Scottie Scheffler is the No. 1 player in the world and the 4-1 favorite in the 2024 PGA Championship futures, followed by two-time major champion Jon Rahm at 9-1. Before locking in any 2024 PGA Championship picks of your own, entering PGA DFS lineups on sites like DraftKings or FanDuel, or finalizing PGA Championship props and PGA Championship Pick Six entries, be sure to see the 2024 PGA Championship golf predictions and projected leaderboard from the proven computer model at SportsLine .

Our proprietary model, built by DFS pro Mike McClure, has been red-hot since the PGA Tour resumed in June of 2020. In fact, the model is up almost $10,000 on its best bets since the restart, nailing tournament after tournament.

McClure's model correctly predicted Scottie Scheffler would finish on top of the leaderboard at the 2024 Masters, the Arnold Palmer Invitational, and The Players Championship this season. McClure also included Hideki Matsuyama in his best bets to win the 2024 Genesis Invitational. That bet hit at +9000, and for the entire tournament, McClure's best bets returned nearly $1,000.

The model also predicted Jon Rahm would be victorious at the 2023 Sentry Tournament of Champions and The American Express. At the 2023 Masters, the model was all over Rahm's second career major victory heading into the weekend. Rahm was two strokes off the lead heading into the third round, but the model still projected him as the winner. It was the second straight Masters win for the model, which also nailed Scheffler winning in 2022.

In addition, McClure's best bets included Nick Taylor (70-1) winning the 2023 RBC Canadian Open, Jason Day (17-1) winning outright at the 2023 AT&T Byron Nelson, and Rickie Fowler (14-1) finishing on top of the leaderboard at the 2023 Rocket Mortgage Classic.

This same model has also nailed a whopping 11 majors entering the weekend and hit the Masters three straight years. Anyone who has followed it has seen massive returns.

Now with the PGA Championship 2024 field taking shape, SportsLine simulated the tournament 10,000 times, and the results were surprising. Head to SportsLine now to see the projected leaderboard.

Top 2024 PGA Championship predictions 

One major surprise the model is calling for at the 2024 PGA Championship: Brooks Koepka, a three-time PGA champion and one of the favorites, stumbles and doesn't even crack the top 10. Koepka has five major tournament wins on his resume and a reputation for elevating his level of play in big events. However, his last two major starts haven't gone well as he was 45th at the Masters, which followed a 64th-place finish at last year's Open Championship. He's failed to shoot par in each of his last seven rounds at major tournaments.

After notching three tournament wins in 2023, including last year's PGA Championship, it has been tough sledding for Koepka in 2024. He has no victories, or even top-fives, and across his six starts, he has three times as many finishes outside the top 25 (three) as he has inside the top 10 (one). He played Valhalla at the 2014 PGA Championship and finished in a tie for 15th place, but that placement ranks just eighth out of his 11 career PGA Championship starts.

Another surprise: Will Zalatoris, a 25-1 longshot, makes a strong run at the title. He's a target for anyone looking for a huge payday. After battling a back injury that held him out of action for nearly nine months, Zalatoris slipped outside the top 50 in the Official World Golf Ranking, but is back up to No. 29 following a ninth-place finish at the Masters.

It was already his third top 10 of the season and has become a fixture on the first page of the leaderboard at major championships, finishing top 10 in seven of the 10 majors that he's played since turning professional. Zalatoris finished solo second when he last teed it up at the PGA Championship in 2022 and his iron play is likely to be a deciding factor on a challenging PGA setup. The 27-year-old ranks eighth on the PGA Tour in strokes gained: approach (0.720) and was the fifth-best in that category at Augusta this year.  See who else to pick here .

How to make 2024 PGA Championship picks

The model is also targeting three other golfers with odds of 25-1 or longer to make a strong run at the title. Anyone who backs these longshots could hit it big. You can only see the model's picks here .

Who will win the 2024 PGA Championship, and which longshots will stun the golfing world? Check out the PGA Championship 2024 odds below and then visit SportsLine to see the projected PGA Championship leaderboard, all from the model that's nailed 11 golf majors, including the last three Masters .

Scottie scheffler continues dominant run with 2024 rbc heritage win, share this article.

Scottie Scheffler spent an extra night in Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, which typically wouldn’t be such a drag if not for his wife Meredith being pregnant back home in Dallas and awaiting the couple’s first child later this month.

But Mother Nature had other plans, forcing Scheffler to return to Harbour Town Golf Links on Monday morning to play his final three holes of the 2024 RBC Heritage and wrap up his fourth PGA Tour title in his past five starts.

One week and one day after Scheffler slipped into the famed Green Jacket awarded to the Masters champ for the second time in three years, the 27-year-old Texan added another colorful jacket – this time in trademark Tartan – to his closet and became the first reigning Masters champion to win the RBC Heritage since Bernhard Langer in 1985.

Scheffler, who was 4-under through 15 holes in the final round and 20-under overall when play was suspended due to darkness on Sunday, made two pars and a finishing bogey and signed for a 3-under 68 on Monday, three shots better than Sahith Theegala (68) and four better than reigning U.S. Open champion Wyndham Clark (65) and past FedEx Cup champion Patrick Cantlay (68). Scheffler banked another $3.6 million to surpass $18 million in earnings this season – and it’s still April.

“I didn’t show up here just to have some sort of ceremony and have people tell me congratulations,” said Scheffler of avoiding a post-Masters victory hangover. “I came here with a purpose.”

CBS Sports roving reporter Colt Knost, who grew up with Scheffler following him around Dallas’s Royal Oaks Golf Club, already has one of the best nicknames in golf: The Big Gravy. But he may have earned another one – Knost-radamus – for a prediction seemingly as accurate as those of the 16 th century French astrologer Nostradamus. In February 2022, when Scheffler won his first Tour title at the WM Phoenix Open, Knost proclaimed him to be “a worldbeater,” and added, “Now that he’s got that first one, I think the floodgates are going to open for him.”

Scheffler’s latest triumph is his 10 th career title, the first player to win that many times (or more) in three seasons since Dustin Johnson did so between 2015-16 and 2017-18. There’s no indication that this flood of success for the world No. 1 will stop any time soon. Did Knost imagine Scheffler would dominate on the PGA Tour? “I really did,” he said. “He never plays badly and he’s one of the most competitive people I’ve ever met. He will never just go through the motions.”

Theegala, who recalled playing against Scheffler for the first time in the Starburst Junior Golf Classic at Waco, Texas, didn’t remember ever beating Scheffler, who is a year older than him, in a single junior tournament. Competing with Scheffler, who leads the Tour in 30 statistical categories this season, hasn’t gotten any easier lately. “It’s pretty epic,” Theegala said of Scheffler, who has shot even par or better in all 40 rounds this season and became the first player to win four times in five starts since Tiger Woods in 2007-08. “I was talking to Carl, my caddie, walking to 15 tee box. I was like, I grew up watching the end of Tiger, got to see Rory, DJ, Jordan, like all these guys kind of dominate for a period of time, and I was like, we could be in the midst of something really, really special.”

Some observers suggested that Scheffler would skip the RBC Heritage but Scheffler said he never wavered in his commitment to the tournament. After winning the Masters, Scheffler flew home to Dallas to be with Meredith and didn’t show up to Hilton Head until Tuesday. He played only a nine-hole practice round on Wednesday and spotted much of the field a head start, shanking a bunker shot at his third hole in the first round, making double bogey and needing two late birdies to post 69. He trailed by six and complained of fatigue. But after recharging his batteries, he didn’t make a single bogey or worse until the 72nd hole of the tournament, and even in that case Scheffler said he was counting that one as a par as he played the smart shots with a comfortable lead. He stormed back with a 65 on Friday and was lurking three back before reminding everyone who is boss with a bogey-free 63 to claim a one-stroke lead.

In the final round, Scheffler laid down the hammer early, chipping in at the par-5 second hole from 53 feet for eagle. His bump-and-run, executed to perfection, marked his 11 th hole-out of the season. He tacked on a birdie at the par-5 fifth and strung together six consecutive pars before the horn blew. When play resumed he wedged to 6 feet for another birdie at 13. When he made his lone blunder, pull-hooking a 4-iron into the water due to mud on his ball at the par-5 15th, he took a penalty drop and carved a beautiful shot to 11 feet. Darkness had fallen and he could’ve wait until Monday to strike the par putt but he opted to play on and sank it for good measure. While that snapped a streak of 53 consecutive holes without recording a score of more than a four on his card, dating to the 15 th hole in his first round, he pumped his fist with glee for keeping a clean card (to that point).

“I felt like I was due for one to drop,” said Scheffler, whose closing bogey gave him a winning total 19-under 265. “So I figured might as well hit it now.”

Clark mounted an early charge, making an eagle and six birdies in his first 11 holes to inch within a stroke of the lead. But his effort to run down Scheffler was spoiled at the 12 th hole when Clark tried to punch between trees. His ball struck one of them squarely and ricocheted out of bounds. He made double bogey.

“It was kind of fun for a little bit,” said Clark, who improved to a career-best ranking of No. 3 in the world. “Seemed like maybe we had a chance to do something crazy.”

Only Mother Nature could prolong Scheffler’s victory another day. Play was suspended due to inclement weather at 4:28 p.m. ET, for two hours and 32 minutes. The delay meant they ran out of daylight.

But on Monday, Scheffler capped off winning for the fourth time this year, all of them Signature events. He finished tied for second in the only tournament he did not win during his scorching run. For the week, he topped the field of 69 in Strokes Gained: Off the Tee, SG: Tee to Green, SG: Approach the Green and scrambling.

“We’re watching greatness right now,” CBS’s Jim Nantz said. “It doesn’t happen all the time, but it sure is fun when you find yourself witnessing something like this.

Nantz’s NFL broadcast partner, former Dallas Cowboys QB Tony Romo, who played in the Invited Celebrity Classic on PGA Tour Champions last week, estimated he’s played around 500 rounds with Scheffler and said he’s never failed to break 70.

“Which is insane,” said Romo who played with him the week before the Masters at Brook Hollow, a Dallas club. “I have not seen a guy hit a golf ball like this since Tiger back in the 2000s when I played with him, the way he was striking the ball, the compression, the trajectory, the spin rate. It was impressive, and I was like, ‘He ain’t losing that tournament.’ ”

No one stopped him at the RBC Heritage either. Could Scheffler be on his way to a season for the record books? That may depend whether history repeats itself — all 10 of his wins have come in the months of February, March and April. So, time will tell if Scheffler can continue to dominate when the calendar flips to May – just don’t bet against the floodgates closing any time soon.
