Here is the list of tee times for the first and second rounds of the 2024 PGA Championship at Valhalla Golf Club.

After winning the Wells Fargo Championship, McIlroy heads into the PGA Championship on a heater -- again. Can he capitalize this time?

Futures betting odds to win the 2024 PGA Championship at Valhalla Golf Club, finish top five and top 10.
Let’s start with the headline.
The COBRA LIMIT3D irons are the first commercially available 3D printed irons.
Because this isn’t my first day on the internet, I know some of you will read this and think (or scream in my comment section), COBRA is ripping-off Avoda, the small brand that recently received some attention for 3D printing irons for Bryson DeChambeau.
C’mon, guys. It’s not like 3D printing a golf club is as simple as hitting the print button. Well, I suppose the act itself is exactly that easy but the button doesn’t work without years of development.
In COBRA’s case, it has been working on 3D printed irons for the last half dozen years. While it has kept its cards close to its vest, COBRA has had 3D printed clubs on the PGA Tour for years.
Titleist has announced an Enhanced Alignment option for the Pro V1, Pro V1x and Pro V1x Left Dash.
Titleist isn’t going nuts or anything. This isn’t Truvis or Stripe (or Ink).
Enhanced Alignment provides a new choice for golfers seeking a pre-baked alignment aid beyond the side stamp or the more than 40 different alignment designs already available through Titleist’s golf ball customization program.
Do you like alignment aids?
I’m not sure where you stand but I’m an alignment aid guy. As I’ve intermittently struggled with my putting, I’ve tried almost everything from a single line to TP Pix with ClearPath, all the way to Callaway’s two-color Fade pattern.
Personally, I gravitate towards the bigger, bolder, can’t miss ‘em kind of designs, and while Titleist’s Enhanced Alignment isn’t quite as audacious as that, it strikes a reasonable balance between subtlety and utility.
While I consider myself a golf traditionalist in a lot of ways that are annoying to people, I think this call back to the past might have more support.
The PGA Championship being played this week at Valhalla used to be a match play tournament. For its first 39 years—until 1957—a stroke play qualifier led into a match play bracket to determine the champion. It took TV networks pressuring the PGA of America to force a change to 72 holes of stroke play, a format more conducive to advertising (more on that in a moment).
I think the tournament should go back to match play.
We don’t have nearly enough match play in professional golf on an individual level, especially now that the WGC Match Play Championship at Austin Country Club has ended. The PGA Championship switching formats would create an identity it has lacked for many years.
Will this actually happen? Probably not. But let me state my case.
Stewart Golf has extended its popular follow family of electric carts with the new Q Follow Carbon Range.
It might be a stretch to say that electric pushcarts are all the rage but one might say they’ve become the tiny houses of the golf world.
If you prefer the e-bike analogy, that’s fine, too.
What I’m driving (or no longer driving, as the case may be) at is that several of my laziest friends have moved from riding carts to electric carts, and while I’ve always been a walker, I prefer the freedom of follow mode to pushing.
My two-cents’ worth? Electric carts are the best way to carry your clubs.
The new Wilson Staff Model golf balls are a bit of a phenomenon.
We’re not talking about performance. Rather, it’s your interest in Wilson Staff products and specifically the new Staff Model golf balls. Soon after their release in January, you told us you wanted to know more.
Rest assured: A Ball Lab quality teardown is in the works. Also, know the Wilson Staff Model golf balls will be part of our next MyGolfSpy ball test. But it’s fascinating to note your interest far outpaces Wilson’s relative golf ball market share. We’re not sure what that means but it must mean something.
Today, let’s take a deep dive into how Wilson Staff Model golf balls came to be. If you’re a Rudyard Kipling fan, consider this a MyGolfSpy “Just So” story. But instead of Kipling telling his four-year-old daughter how the elephant got his trunk, we’ll share with you how the Staff Model got its dimples.
Among other things.
Just a few weekends ago, Mystik Dan took home the Kentucky Derby crown. The riveting horserace came down to a dramatic photo finish.
He’s not the only winner. Chalk one up for FootJoy!
Today, FootJoy released a collaboration with renowned fashion designer Todd Snyder. The “Mint Julep” Premiere Series, fittingly named for the cocktail of choice at the Kentucky Derby, arrives in time for the PGA Championship.
Sure, Mystik Dan stole the show, but FootJoy’s “Mint Julep” Premiere Series is every bit the stunner that the Kentuck Derby finish was. Seriously, if you can find a more breathtaking pair, let me know.
Both the FootJoy Wilcox and Field models are elevated with classy patent leather and pastel “mint” pops of color. I’ve not had the pleasure of attending the Kentucky Derby but the elegance that exudes from each shoe seems to match the aura of those privileged to attend the popular event.
Jimmy Dunne, who last year helped negotiate the PGA Tour's controversial framework agreement with Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund, resigned from the tour's policy board on Monday, effective immediately.
Scottie Scheffler, who hasn't played since winning the RBC Heritage on April 22, arrived at the PGA Championship following the birth of his son, Bennett, on May 8.
Today, we have something truly special for you: a very limited set of KYOEI wedges produced in a completely unique way. These wedges were made with a focus on quality and precision.
KYOEI Golf aimed to create a wedge that spared no expense, making them as special as possible. They sought out S15C, the softest forged carbon used for golf clubs in Japan, and selected the grinder by name. They then requested CNC milling for the face, grooves, and all logos. CNC milling is very expensive in Japan, especially for small production runs like these KYOEI Limited Wedges. The extra millwork, compared to stamped grooves, enhances spin and provides a flatter face for improved consistency in your short game.
These wedges were produced in a special factory in Japan called ST, which handles pro grinding for both large and small brands based on tour player requests. Only 30 sets of 50/54/58 degree lofts were produced, resulting in fewer than 100 pieces in existence. These wedges will not be made again. They were quite expensive and took about 7-8 months to receive after ordering them from the factory. However, the end result is stunning: you get an extremely buttery feel with loads of spin and an unmatched aesthetic.
