The PGA Championship is one of the most prestigious golf tournaments and is one of the four major events in golf. First held in 1916, the format of the tournament has changed over the years. Today it will be played over four rounds of stroke play, with players who fail to make the cut after the second round eliminated. The winner not only receives the prestigious title, but also qualifies for all major tournaments for the next five years.

In the past, numerous famous players such as Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson have made history here. In previous editions of the PGA Championship, Scheffler has already taken a place among the best players in the world and is now trying to enter the list of legends of the sport with another victory.

Overall, there is great anticipation for the final day, and the golf world is looking forward to the developments at Quail Hollow Club, where the best players in the world will compete.
