Valhalla Golf Club hosted the PGA Championship in 1996, 2000 and 2014. It also hosted the Ryder Cup in 2008, with the United States beating Europe 16.5 to 11.5. Now this Jack Nicklaus design will be in the spotlight once again as it hosts the 2024 PGA Championship, which begins on Thursday. There are 156 players in the 2024 PGA Championship field, including 15-time major champion Tiger Woods. Woods was eliminated from the Masters for a record-breaking 24th time, but the grueling walk to Augusta eventually took its toll. Can you expect some production from Woods at Valhalla, where he won in 2000, as you finalize your 2024 PGA Championship fantasy golf lineups?
Which other stars and underdogs are worth moving up in the 2024 PGA Championship fantasy golf rankings? Before making any 2024 PGA Championship fantasy golf picks, you should see PGA Championship fantasy golf rankings from SportsLine handicapper Eric Cohen.
Cohen is an avid golf bettor who has correctly predicted the outright pre-tournament winner of the 2024 Masters (Scottie Scheffler, +350), Players Championship (Scheffler +550), 2023 Rocket Mortgage Classic (Rickie Fowler +1400), 2023 PGA Championship (Brooks Koepka +2000), 2023 Honda Classic (Chris Kirk +3500), 2022 Open Championship (Cameron Smith +2200), 2022 US Open (Matt Fitzpatrick +2500) and 2022 Phoenix Open (Scheffler’s first career victory in +2800).
Cohen contributes to SportsLine’s YouTube shows, including “Early Edge,” and is the host of the golf show “The Early Wedge.” Anyone who has followed Cohen’s predictions has seen positive gains in their golf choices.
Now, Cohen has ranked his top golfers for the 2024 PGA Championship. Cohen’s picks are only available on SportsLine.
2024 PGA Championship Expert Picks
For the 2024 PGA Championship, Cohen is backing 2023 US Open winner Wyndham Clark (+1600). He has won three times in less than a year and risen to third in the Official World Golf Rankings, but he is still regularly left out of conversations about the best players.
After earning his PGA Tour card through the Korn Ferry Tour and fighting to maintain his status, Clark scored a victory at the 2023 Wells Fargo Championship. About six weeks later, he added his first major title at the US Open and added a third victory at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am earlier this year. He is second in the FedEx Cup standings and is a clear threat to capture a second major championship in Valhalla.
On the other hand, Cohen is fading Patrick Cantlay at +2200. The 32-year-old is currently ranked eighth in the world and an eight-time winner on the PGA Tour, but has been unable to change direction at a major championship on a regular basis.
Cantlay has finished in the top 10 just four times in 28 major championship starts and has been outside the top 20 in five of his seven PGA Championship starts. He has just two top 10s in nine starts on the PGA Tour in 2024 and is a player to avoid at his current price. See all of Cohen’s PGA Championship picks at SportsLine.
