PGA Championship 2026: Odds entering third round at Aronimink
Scottie Scheffler, Jon Rahm and Cameron Young are all in the mix at the 108th edition of the PGA Championship. But where do oddsmakers list them compared to current co-leaders Maverick McNealy and Alex Smalley?
Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy are right where they were forecasted to be at the beginning of the week at the 108th edition of the PGA Championship : in contention. Aronomink’s pin locations and weather have consistently challenged the field at the year's second major and held 36-hole scoring to its highest at a PGA Championship since 2008, and the world’s top-ranked players have benefitted from the limiting conditions. At least according to the oddsmakers.
Maverick McNealy and Alex Smalley might be co-leaders heading into Saturday's third round, but there are plenty of other pre-tournament favorites ahead in line to hoist the Wanamaker Trophy this weekend. Here's where sportsbooks have Jon Rahm, Cameron Young and Ludvig Åberg compared to Scheffler, McIlroy and the co-leaders: 2026 PGA Championship third round odds (as of May 15, courtesy of DraftKings) Scottie Scheffler (+340) Cameron Young (+970) Ludvig Åberg (+1175) Maverick McNealy (+1250) Jon Rahm (+1275) Hideki Matsuyama (+1400) Chris Gotterup (+1400) Min Woo Lee (+1475) Alex Smalley (+1550) Justin Thomas (+2100) Si Woo Kim (+2300) Rory McIlroy (+2800) Patrick Cantlay (+3300) Harris English (+3500) PGA Championship winner prediction Scottie is just a tick more expensive than he was at two days ago which is not something you see every week — or even once a year, so that's worth noting. Can't say value has been lost or gained though.
Where there is value is on our first-round leader pick Åberg who was red-hot on the back nine Friday and sits inside the top 10 after 36 holes. Still seeking his first major championship, the 24-year-old Swede has looked absolutely elite at several points over the last two months. We'll roll the dice on him at +1175 ...
of course, that recommendation does come after missing the play pretty badly on Thursday. You've been warned! Live From the PGA Championship - Saturday Golf Channel brings you the latest news from the PGA Championship at Aronimink Golf Club in Newtown Square, Pa.
