The congested leaderboard at the 2026 PGA Championship could open up during the second round at Aronimink Golf Club, where the world's top players remain in contention after a challenging opening day.
Round One Recap
Defending champion Scottie Scheffler is among seven players tied for the lead at three-under par. Martin Kaymer impressed with a strong start, 16 years after his breakthrough victory at this event. Major winners Patrick Reed, Shane Lowry, and Xander Schauffele sit just one shot back. However, Rory McIlroy and Bryson DeChambeau face an uphill battle after disappointing starts in Philadelphia. McIlroy, the Masters champion, finished with four consecutive bogeys to end seven shots off the lead, while DeChambeau is two strokes further back and likely out of contention.
