- Defending champion Brooks Koepka is the one to beat at this week’s PGA Championship even if Tiger Woods will have the boisterous New York galleries on side as one of golf’s four major tournaments begins a new era in the spring.

The field will comprise 156 players, but 155 of them will be in the supporting cast as one man takes center stage. While not short off the tee, Woods is no longer among the game’s biggest hitters after his 2017 spinal fusion. Legitimate title chances will line up like jets at nearby JFK airport, but anyone with designs on winning will likely have to contend with the quiet assassin Koepka, who for all his dominance in recent majors remains less than a crowd favorite.

McIlroy would likely be the outright favorite if he were not coming off another disappointing Sunday, the latest in the final round at the Wells Fargo Championship, where he shot an error-strewn closing 73.
