Storylines to follow at the 2024 PGA Championship
Scottie Scheffler is back in action after the birth of his son Bennett. He will be on the quest to win the second major this year and solidify his star status even further. Then there’s McIlroy, who, despite going through a divorce will be aiming to end his 10-year-old major drought, especially after wins at the Zurich Classic and Wells Fargo Championship. Jon Rahm, ever since his defection has been on the sidelines with no stellar performance. He sure will be seeking redemption, and then there is Koepka, coming off from a win in Singapore, and on the lookout for his 6th major win.

Due to a knee issue, Ludvig Aberg was limited to watching Rory McIlroy win the Wells Fargo Championship last week on television but this week he is in the field, and he is “focusing on the golf.”
