Live PGA Championship 2025 Coverage: Detailed Information on Dates, Times, Location, Participants, and Streaming Options as McIlroy Targets Victory at Preferred Venue
Crankin' up the excitement at the 2025 PGA Championship
Prepare to witness a thrilling battle as Rory McIlroy, fresh off his Masters triumph, aims to snag his sixth major title at the Quail Hollow Club next week. With four victories already under his belt at this championship venue, McIlroy is expected to relish teeing off again.
Last year's champion, Xander Schauffele, sets his sights on retaining the trophy, though his victory at Valhalla was somewhat shadowed by the drama surrounding Scottie Scheffler. Scheffler, now looking to erase the memories of last year's incident, will strive for PGA Championship glory in 2025.
In 2024, Scheffler found himself in a bit of a hot mess when he was apprehended on charges of assaulting a police officer. After some back and forth, the prosecutor dropped the charges, citing the incident as a "big misunderstanding." Though it's uncertain whether Scheffler's mishap in 2024 was a factor, he was once again involved in an altercation that led to his arrest before his second round in another major tournament in 2025[1][2][3].
The 2025 PGA Championship will unfold from May 15 to May 18, with the action commencing at 1pm UK time. Both talkSPORT and Sky Sports will broadcast all the heart-pounding decisions and nail-biting moments. Stay tuned for updates on the full field, tee times, and groupings that will be announced closer to the event.
Quail Hollow Club, the venue for the tournament, measures 7,600 yards and is a par 71, famed for 'The Green Mile.' This challenging stretch consists of holes 16, 17, and 18, which lead golfers to their final putting attempts. The course has hosted the PGA Championship before, in 2017, when Justin Thomas claimed victory.
With Tiger Woods recovering from Achilles surgery, the tournament will be missing one of its most iconic figures. However, other golfing greats, such as Bryson DeChambeau, Jon Rahm, and Cameron Smith, will be teeing off as part of the LIV Golf contingent. Past PGA Championship winners, including John Daly, Padraig Harrington, Rich Beem, and Martin Kaymer, will also be participating, ensuring a top-notch competition for the coveted title.
Spectators can anticipate a unique blend of sports as the LIV Golf contingent, including Bryson DeChambeau, Jon Rahm, and Cameron Smith, will include boxing-themed transfer announcements, joining the renowned golfers for the PGA Championship. Amidst the excitement, Scottie Scheffler continues his pursuit of redemption, aiming to rectify past mistakes and secure the PGA Championship title in golf.
