2024 PGA Championship Odds & Picks: Jon Rahm

by |

Golf’s biggest stars descend on Louisville, Kentucky, this week for the second major of the year, the 2024 PGA Championship, which will be played at Valhalla Golf Club.

This will be the fourth PGA Championship to be played at Valhalla, a Jack Nicklaus-designed course that opened in 1986. Mark Brooks won the first PGA at Valhalla in 1996. Tiger Woods outlasted Bob May in a memorable Valhalla duel to win the 2000 PGA Championship. And Rory McIlroy won the PGA here in 2014, edging Phil Mickelson by a stroke.

Brooks Koepka is the defending PGA Championship winner. He won by two strokes over Viktor Hovland and Scottie Scheffler last year at Oak Hill. But Scheffler is the headliner this week. The No. 1 player in the world has been on fire this year, winning four of his last five events. Last month, Scheffler won the first major of 2024, The Masters, earning his second Green Jacket.

The last time Valhalla hosted a PGA Tour event was the 2014 PGA Championship. Jon Rahm made his PGA Tour debut in November 2014, so he’s going to be encountering Valhalla Golf Club for the first time. It’s a lengthy par-71, stretching over 7,600 yards, designed by Jack Nicklaus in 1986. Small greens and water hazards abound.

Jon Rahm Recent Form

We saw Rahm struggle at Augusta National during his attempt to defend his 2023 Masters win. The Spaniard wound up finishing 45th at +9, so he will look to bounce back in the second major of the year.

Jon Rahm 2024 PGA Championship Betting Outlook

While Rahm has fared pretty well on the LIV Tour, it’s a departure from the normal solo-play format in PGA Tour events. Rahm has fallen outside of the top 40 in back-to-back PGA Championships, making +1800 too short to bet him this week.
