The PGA Championship in the first three rounds has laid the foundation for uncertainty. You see, the first round had new names at the top of the leaderboard, and top-seeded players, like Rory McIlroy, recent Masters winner, didn’t have an impressive showing, barely making the cut after 36 holes. Then, his driver was declared ‘Non-conforming’. But away from all the distress and expectation, we are at the final stage, which will help the golfer in etching the name in the history books as the major winner/ PGA Championship winner. The next 18 holes are not to be missed. So here are the tee times and pairings for the PGA Championship final round.

The top two position holders on the leaderboard will be teeing off last. But will they get the advantage, or will clutch performance from other players take away the lead? It remains to be seen. The top three golfers on the leaderboard have a four-stroke difference max from the top spot, which can be reduced with a few good shots. So let’s check who is in great rhythm to be able to do it.
Top 3 golfers’ performance at the PGA Championship
On top of the leaderboard is the world number one, is inevitable Scottie Scheffler. The Dallas native recently won the CJ Cup Byron Nelson, and he has been continuing his form. Even though in the first round he recorded two bogeys and one double bogey, his four birdies and one eagle came in as a rescue. Even in the later rounds, the performance saw even better as he started a spree of birdies. He recorded 15 birdies and 2 eagles in three rounds to stay at 11 under.
