Scottie Scheffler heads to Pennsylvania bidding to become the first player to successfully defend at the PGA Championship since Brooks Koepka in 2019.
The world number one won his first start of the season at The American Express in January but has failed to appear in the winner's circle in the subsequent three months; an unusually long period by Scheffler's impeccable standards.
But that doesn't mean he's not been close.
Scheffler arrives at the Aronimink Golf Club having recorded three consecutive runner-up finishes, which includes the Masters at the start of April. The 29-year-old was then pipped in a play-off by Matt Fitzpatrick at the RBC Heritage prior to finishing a distant second to Cam Young at the Cadillac Championship in Miami.
He opted to miss last week's Truist Championship, which is the same strategy he took prior to last year's PGA Championship before going on to win by five shots, so Scheffler will be feeling revitalised heading into the second major of the year.
Spectators would relish seeing Scheffler locked in a duel with his fellow golfing juggernaut Rory McIlroy. Whether the reigning Masters champion is in the mix on Sunday, you can expect to see Scheffler somewhere near the top of the leaderboard.
The four-time major winner has 17 top 10 finishes across the Masters, PGA Championship, U.S. Open and Open Championship - a statistic which is made even more remarkable when you consider Scheffler's only appeared in 24 majors.
In fact, the last time Scheffler failed to finish in the top 10 in a major was the 2023 U.S. Open. His results since read: T7, 4th, 1st, T7, 1st, 2nd. It's extraordinary consistency.
