The PGA Championship will be played at The Ocean Course at Kiawah Island in 2021. The layout is one of the most challenging ones in America and it will be interesting to see how the world’s best golfers fare at the venue this week. As Round 1 is set to begin on Thursday, here’s everything you need to know about tee times, featured groups, and live coverage.
Collin Morikawa will enter the 2021 PGA Championship as the defending champion. Morikawa won last year at TPC Harding Park, but the odds are against him this time at The Ocean Course.
Rory McIlroy is the favorite to win this year as McIlroy reigned supreme at the 2012 PGA Championship when it was held at The Ocean course for the first time. Only time will tell which golfer will emerge as the champion this year.
