The PGA Championship is currently the 2nd major golf event held annually in May, on the weekend leading up to Memorial Day, having to up from its old mid-August location from 2019 on.
Chronologically on the two golf championship calendar the PGA Championship – often named the US PGA – follows on from the Masters in March.

The Masters Cup has springtime in Augusta, and the US Open has tight fairways and high rough, the PGA Championship has windswept seaside locales. The PGA Championship has – what rightly? Identity has long been the problem for a major that is seen format changes and calendar moves over the course of its age.
What the PGA Championship has had lots of recently, though, international or not, scoring, the PGA Championship has become a major where golfers are most likely to go low, which sets the event apart from a gambling perspective.
In 2018, Brooks set an event record with a complete score of 264. In 2015, Jason Day finished the game at twenty under, the lowest winning score ever in a major. Among 2010-2019, seven of ten PGA winners finished double-digit under par.
For golfers and punters alike that tend toward low scoring has to turn out to be one of the event’s few constant. While course setups occasionally mirror those of the US Open, the PGA Championship of US is an organization run by experts for experts and does not want to embarrass its members. It might not produce the target golf of usual PGA tour events, but sometimes it comes close.
Perhaps because it is the most scoring friendly major, the PGA Championship event is more likely to produce long shot winners like Jimmy Walker 125/1 in 2016, Keegan Bradley 150/1 in 2011, and Y.E. Yang 125 /1 in 2009.
The tournament’s new springtime date can also prove vexing for punters, given how some best players play a relatively light schedule early in 2020. Woods, for instance, had played just 5 events in 2019 before arriving at Bethpage Black, where he missed the cut. So, take a longer view on golfer’s trends, rather than becoming enamored with perhaps more restricted performances of the present season.
