2025 PGA Championship Odds, Picks & Predictions: David Puig

by |

Rory McIlroy's thrilling victory at The Masters last month set up some compelling storylines for the second major of the season, the 2025 PGA Championship, which will be played this week at Quail Hollow in Charlotte, North Carolina.

McIlroy completed the career grand slam with his win at Augusta. If he wins again this week, he'll be halfway to a true grand slam. McIlroy has fared well at Quail Hollow throughout his career, having won four tournaments there. It's a course that favors big hitters — right up McIlroy's alley.

But McIlroy isn't even the favorite this week. That would be Scottie Scheffler, the No. 1 player in the world. Scheffler cruised to an eight-shot victory at his most recent event, the CJ Cup Byron Nelson.

Will golf fans be treated to a duel between McIlroy and Scheffler? Or will other top players intervene? Defending PGA champ Xander Schauffele is certainly capable of repeating. Justin Thomas and Ludvig Aberg have been hot lately. LIV Tour star Bryson DeChambeau has been frisky in recent majors, and other LIV players — Jon Rahm, Brooks Koepka, Tyrrell Hatton and others — could contend.

Course History

David Puig is a LIV Golf rising star. He's another golfer making his debut at Quail Hollow this week. He missed the cut during his PGA Championship debut at Valhalla in 2024.

Recent Form

The 23-year-old Spaniard has helped Fireballs GC log a pair of fourth-place finishes since mid-February. Puig ranks third in scrambling, fourth in driving distance, fifth in putting average and seventh in total birdies on LIV.

Betting Outlook: 2025 PGA Championship Predictions

Puig isn't the best tee-to-green tactician, and he's making his debut at Quail Hollow. Oddsmakers have set his outright winner odds to a lengthy 100-1 this week.

I'd consider targeting him to make the cut and bounce back from 2024, but I'm not touching his outright odds, even at his lucrative longshot price.
