The best golf players in the world will be gathered in Pennsylvania this weekend for the 2026 PGA Championship. Aronimink Golf Club in Newton Square is the host site for this year’s event, marking just the second time the course has been the home for the major, and the first time since 1962.
Scottie Scheffler enters as the defending champion at the PGA Championship, coming off the 2025 victory that saw him outpace the next-best golfers by five strokes by the end of Sunday. The American made easy work at Quail Hollow for the third major win of his career.
Scheffler remains a force on the tour, entering play at the PGA Championship still ranked No. 1 in the world. Right behind him at No. 2 is Rory McIlroy, who is coming off his second consecutive green jacket at the Masters.
Here’s a look at the tee times for Thursday’s first round at the PGA Championship.
