2025 PGA Championship Odds, Picks & Predictions: Justin Rose

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

It has truly been hit-or-miss at Quail Hollow over Justin Rose's lengthy career. The "hits" have been big, as he has a pair of third-place finishes (2019, 2016), as well as a fifth-place outing in 2014. However, over the last 17 years, Rose has played the course eight times, missing the cut thrice, as well as placing 52nd last season.

Recent Form

Like his history at Quail Hollow, the 2025 campaign has been an inconsistent one for the Englishman. He logged a third-place finish at the Pebble Beach Pro-Am back in February, but his season climaxed with a second-place finish at the Masters last month. Since then, he finished 42nd at the RBC Heritage and withdrew from the Truist Championship last weekend.

Betting Outlook: 2025 PGA Championship Predictions

I tossed a few bucks on Justin Rose to secure a top-10 finish this weekend, which comes with a +550 payout at DraftKings Sportsbook. He has proven that he can dominate at Quail Hollow in the past. The 44-year-old also has four top-10 finishes in his last eight Majors. Rose is pretty inconsistent nowadays, but considering he can flip the switch from time to time, I think it's worth a sprinkle on him this weekend in North Carolina.
