Rory McIlroy is bidding for a second successive major victory as he heads into the PGA Championship this weekend. The 37-year-old Northern Irishman, who won the Masters at Augusta last month, aims to claim the PGA title for the first time in 12 years.
Competition and Preparations
McIlroy faces stiff competition from defending champion Scottie Scheffler, along with Cameron Young, Matt Fitzpatrick, Jon Rahm, and Tommy Fleetwood. On Tuesday night, Scheffler hosted his Champions Dinner for 18 former PGA champions, but McIlroy was notably absent. Earlier in the day, McIlroy halted his practice round after just three holes due to a painful issue, which he has been managing ahead of Thursday's opening round.
Stay tuned for the latest updates ahead of the PGA Championship.
