CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The PGA Championship has provided a banger of a grouping for the first two days of the tournament, which begins Thursday. The grouping: World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, World No. 2 Rory McIlroy and World No. 3 Xander Schauffele.
Each has their own pursuit this week. For Scheffler, it will be trying to win his first major outside the gates of Augusta National. For McIlroy, trying to win a second straight major and potentially make a run at a Grand Slam. And for Schauffele, defending the title he won a year ago — his first major championship, which he later backed up by claiming The Open in July.
